Iain Armitage is saying goodbye to Young Sheldon — and a member of his on-screen family.
The 15-year-old actor, who has been portraying Sheldon Cooper in the Big Bang Theory spinoff since he was 9, shared a short but sweet post on May 10 following the CBS sitcom’s penultimate episode on May 9.
In the episode, titled “A New Home and a Traditional Texas Torture,” Sheldon faced a major tragedy: the death of his father, George Cooper Sr., after suffering a heart attack.
The death was not unexpected, as it was previously established in The Big Bang Theory that George (played by Lance Barber) died when Sheldon was 14, but it still hit hard with fans — and Armitage himself.

In his post, the teen actor shared two photos, a Young Sheldon still of Sheldon and George interacting, and a smiley, behind-the-scenes selfie of himself and Barber.
And, nodding to George’s final episode on the show ahead of its May 16 finale, Armitage wrote, “Love you, George! Love you, Lance!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.”
