Some news hits harder than others. On the evening of February 24, 2026, Hollywood came to a sudden, grief-stricken halt as veteran comedian and Only Murders in the Building star Martin Short lost his daughter, Katherine Hartley Short, at just 42 years old. Our deepest condolences go out to the Short family during this unimaginably difficult time.
What Happened?
The LAPD and the fire department were called to Katherine’s house in the Hollywood Hills around 6:40 PM PT, where she was found deceased. Following this tragedy, the 75-year-old actor’s The Best of Steve Martin and Martin Short comedy show was canceled via notices on the Milwaukee and Minneapolis locations’ websites.
The family released a heartfelt statement confirming the loss: “It is with profound grief that we confirm the passing of Katherine Hartley Short. The Short family is devastated by this loss, and asks for privacy at this time. Katherine was beloved by all and will be remembered for the light and joy she brought into the world.”
