What Happened to Hairstylist Paul Mitchell’s Son? Details

Angus reportedly died on Jan. 3, 2024, at his home in Honolulu. Law enforcement told TMZ that Angus appeared to have died after drowning in his own pool. Officials responded to reports at the home that a man had drowned at approximately 6 a.m., and Angus was reportedly pronounced dead at the scene. Angus had worked as a hairstylist in Honolulu for a time before opening AngusM in California.

Angus was married three times throughout his life. His first marriage was to Michelle Raab, his second to Sian Morgan, with whom he shares an eight-year-old son, and his third was to his current wife, Mara.

Just hours before his death, Angus had posted a video of himself and his friends singing and playing musical instruments on Instagram.

While all reports indicate that Angus died as the result of drowning in his pool, no official cause of death has been released yet in his case. The police haven’t offered any indication that they suspect foul play, though, so it seems like Angus’s drowning may have been accidental or something else. More details about Angus’s cause of death may emerge in the days and weeks ahead.

Following the news of his death, many who knew of Angus are looking at his Happy New Year post, in which Angus said that he was looking forward to what the year might bring. As many were heartbroken by the optimism that the post seemed to suggest, others remembered Angus and hoped that they would meet him again someday.

Angus certainly had big shoes to fill as he entered the same business that had made his father enormously successful. Although he was Scottish by birth, Paul found his greatest success after coming to America. Following Paul’s death, John Paul Mitchell Systems, the company that sells his haircare product and which Angus had a major stake in, also started opening hairdressing schools.

Now, it isn’t clear who will carry on Paul’s legacy. Like his father, Angus died well before his time and left behind plenty of unfinished business. His death is undoubtedly a tragedy and one that those around him seem to be trying to work through as privately as possible.
