The comedy troupe Monty Python originally consisted of six members, according to major media reports. Two of the original members have since died: Graham Chapman died of cancer, and Terry Jones died from the effects of dementia, as reported by major media. The four remaining members are Eric Idle, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, and Michael Palin, multiple reports indicate.

The last time all four remaining members met was in 2014, when they performed a series of sold-out shows at London's O2 Arena, according to major media. Among the survivors, Terry Gilliam, Michael Palin, and Eric Idle are the three who keep in touch with each other, major media reports. The current relationship status between John Cleese and the other three members is not publicly detailed, and it is unknown why only three of the four remaining members maintain contact.

Specific health or personal reasons that might explain the lack of contact with Cleese have not been confirmed. There have been no reported public statements or events involving all four members since 2014. The individual activities or current projects of the remaining members are also not specified in available reports.
