The news comes shortly after David tragically lost his sister Alexis Arquette, who'd been battling HIV for 29 years, just last month. He took to Twitter on 16th September to share a message about his sister, posting a photo of Alexis next to lyrics from the Rolling Stone's song, She's a Rainbow.
'She's like a rainbow,' he wrote in his tweet, followed by lyrics that read: 'She comes in colors. Everywhere she combs her hair. She's like a rainbow.'
On the day of his sister's death, David also shared a photo of her with the caption: 'Thank you all for your love and kind words about Alexis. My hero for eternity.'
