The Charmed actress commemorated her friendship with Eric, who played her onscreen love interest on the show.
“I can’t stop seeing that spark in Eric’s eye right before he’d say something that would either make you spit out your drink or rethink your entire perspective,” she wrote on Instagram. “He had a razor-sharp sense of humor. He loved the absurdity of things. He loved catching people off guard.”
And she credited him with her daring 2003 look.
“He convinced me to get my pixie cut and my nose piercing,” Alyssa continued. “He also was with me on the walk when we found Lucy, my beloved rescue chihuahua. He called me ‘Milano,’ as if it was the only part of my name that mattered.”
She concluded, “My heart is with the people who were lucky enough to be his home.”
