The daughter of “Good Times” actor John Amos says she didn’t learn of his death until weeks later.

Shannon Amos shares that even though her father reportedly passed away in August, she didn't hear the news until Tuesday – “through the media,” like the rest of the world – after her brother KC Amos made the announcement.

“I'm at a loss for words… Our family received the heartbreaking news that my father, John Allen Amos Jr., made the transition on August 21,” Shannon, a self-proclaimed travel expert and “herbal medicine ceremonialist,” wrote in the newspaper captioned an Instagram video showing her and her late father dancing outdoors under a cloudy sky.

“We are devastated and have many questions about how this happened 45 days ago since, like so many of you, we found out about it through the media,” she continued, noting that she is “struggling to understand this.” Dealing with the wave of emotions and insecurities that come with his death.”

Amos is perhaps best known as “Good Times” dad James Evans Sr., a role he played in the show's first three seasons beginning in 1974. He also portrayed the adult Kunta Kinte on Roots and had a recurring role on The West Wing, appearing alongside Bruce Willis, Eddie Murphy and Denzel Washington throughout his career.

KC confirmed in his announcement Tuesday that his father died of natural causes at his home in Los Angeles at the age of 84. KC himself has been involved in a bitter battle with his sister since at least last summer.

Shannon reportedly started a GoFundMe in June 2023 to raise money for her father's care, claiming he was a “victim of elder abuse and exploitation” at the hands of a “trusted caregiver.” She filed a complaint with the Los Angeles Police Department in March.

Law enforcement sources told TMZ at the time that these allegations were about KC

KC and his father denied those claims (John Amos told Parade in a statement that he was “doing well”), but Shannon told The Hollywood Reporter in November that she had provided documents to police in Colorado and New Jersey indicating the opposite prove.

She also reportedly claimed that KC exerted control over his father and his business affairs, impersonated an actor in various communications, and disregarded his medical needs while isolating the older actor from the rest of his family.

KC told the reporter in November that his sister lied to make her father appear “unfit.” He also announced that he would be developing a documentary about the actor called “American Dad,” a nickname he earned from his legendary appearance in “Good Times.”

“He was a man with the kindest heart and a heart of gold … and he was loved all over the world,” KC wrote in his statement Tuesday about his father's death. “Many fans consider him their TV dad. He lived a good life. His legacy will live on in his outstanding work as an actor on television and film.”
