Legendary actor Chuck Norris has died aged 86 following a sudden medical emergency in Hawaii.

The actor passed away Thursday morning, according to a post shared by his family to Instagram.

'It is with heavy hearts that our family shares the sudden passing of our beloved Chuck Norris yesterday morning,' the family said.

'While we would like to keep the circumstances private, please know that he was surrounded by his family and at peace.'

It is unclear what medical emergency the actor suffered, which was reportedly a sudden unexpected illness.

His family paid tribute to Norris as a 'devoted husband, a loving father and grandfather, an incredible brother, and the heart of our family.'

'He lived his life with faith, purpose, and an unwavering commitment to the people he loved. Through his work, discipline, and kindness, he inspired millions around the world and left a lasting impact on so many lives.'

Norris was best known for action roles including 'Walker, Texas Ranger' and 'The Delta Force' in the 1980s, and became a cult figure on social media in his later years.

The actor was a renowned martial artist and fitness guru, and earlier this month he celebrated his birthday by sharing a video of himself staying fit in a training session.

The star wrote alongside the clip, 'I’m 86 today! Nothing like some playful action on a sunny day to make you feel young. I’m grateful for another year, good health, and the chance to keep doing what I love.

'Thank you all for being the best fans in the world. Your support through the years has meant more to me than you’ll ever know. God Bless, Chuck Norris.'
