Someone else can re-word this, but a easy-to-find paragraph on deleteing Eloquent models seemed missing.

It's also possible to attach data for fields in the intermediate table (pivot table), to do this add a second array variable to the attach command containing the data you want to attach:
$user->roles()->attach($role_id, array('expires' => $expires));

## Deleting Models
Because Eloquent inherits all the features and methods of Fluent queries, deleting models is a snap:
$author->delete();
Note, however, than this won't delete any related models (e.g. all the author's Book models will still exist), unless you have set up [foreign keys](/docs/database/schema#foreign-keys) and cascading deletes.
