Balducci is survived by his ex-wife, Sabrina, and his two sons.
Sabrina and Charlie were one of the first ever stars of the MTV hit reality show, with cameras filming the couple in the run-up to their wedding for True Life: I’m Getting Married in 2001.
The episode included one of the most infamous rows ever filmed on reality television, as Charlie was left raging when the limo driver was running late.

He said in the fiery on-air moment: “I will gut you like the piece of s**t you are” and “I’ll hunt you down like cattle”.
After the well-known outburst, Charlie explained in an interview that he blamed his rage on his Staten Island heritage.
He said: “In defence of myself, I really did what any Staten Islander would have done in that situation.”
