UPDATE:
According to a new update from TMZ, she’s still alive inside the hospital, and her domestic partner, Lance, was the one who thought she had died. Apparently, she had closed her eyes while he was hugging her at the hospital, and he for some reason thought that meant she was dead.
Seriously. That’s what the report states. He left the hospital in a panic and didn’t know she was indeed alive until today when the hospital called him and was like, “Bro, she’s still alive”
Sounds fishy as hell to me. Stay tuned.
Some incredibly sad news to report today. 65-year-old actress Tanya Roberts died suddenly after collapsing while walking her dogs on Christmas eve.
Roberts, who was known for playing Stacey Sutton in the 1985 James Bond film ‘A View to Kill’ as well as Midge Pinciotti on ‘That ’70s Show‘ was rushed to the hospital, but doctors could not save her.
According to the reports, the cause of death does not appear to be related to COVID-19, but we’re sure the medical examiner will investigate.
Her rep and close friend, Mike Pingel, told The Hollywood Reporter the following..
I’m devastated. She was brilliant and beautiful and I feel like a light has been taken away. To say she was an angel would be at the top of the list. She was the sweetest person you’d ever meet and had a huge heart. She loved her fans, and I don’t think she realized how much she meant to them.
She had appeared healthy before her death, even making video messages for her fans.
Roberts had a successful modelling career and appeared in some off-Broadway roles. She made her film debut in 1975 with ‘The Last Victim.’ Thereafter, she appeared in a series of films that attained cult status, including ‘The Beastmaster’ (1982), ‘Sheena: Queen of the Jungle’ (1984), ‘Body Slam’ (1987) and ‘Night Eyes’ (1990).
Our thoughts and prayers go out to her friends and family.
