Death suits Dan Stevens.

After being killed off Downton Abbey, the 30-year-old British actor has lost 30 pounds. But don't worry, it wasn't due to grief.

In the Season 3 finale of Downton Abbey, Stevens' character Matthew Crawley died in a car accident on the way home to Downton after he and wife Mary (Michelle Dockery) welcomed a newborn son.
