St. John had played Neil Winters on the CBS soap opera since 1991, earning nine daytime Emmy nominations. He won a Daytime Emmy in 1992 for outstanding younger actor in a drama series and won 10 NAACP Image Awards.
He announced in September that he was engaged to model Kseniya Mikhaleva.
St. John was twice married and divorced and was the father of a son and two daughters. His 24-year-old son, Julian, died in 2014.
On Jan. 21, St. John retweeted “Grieving the loss of a child is a process. It begins on the day your child passes, and ends the day the parent joins them.”
