RIP Tanya Roberts

[Hector]

Man, this is like a soap opera.

Reported dead, now alive, but in intensive care on a ventilator.

I don’t want to speculate, but it’s looking more and more like COVID-related.

Is it wrong that the Monty Python I'm not dead yet bit popped into my head when i read this online?

Yeah any of these people who die on ventilators and have all the symptoms of Covid but somehow "aren't Covid" are definitely Covid.

Hope she pulls through.

sounds to me like she had a stroke

These "celebrity death" stories get bandied about without confirmation all the time. Valerie Perrine was being reported as having died just a few months ago, but she is fortunately still with us.

But this is the first time I have ever known of a celebrity representative announcing to the public that their client had died...and being wrong!

Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still valiantly holding on in his fight to remain dead !!!

[Hector]

Now the report is that she indeed has died.

I’m so confused.

[Mikey]

Wikipedia has her as deceased

That's usually the ultimate deathknell

RIP pretty lady

Very sad news, Charlies Angels ratings were down and the producers were hoping that maybe a fresh pretty face Tanya Roberts could boost them up, but unfortunately she just ended up being more eye candy in a bikini then anything else.

RIP Tanya.

Roberts cause of death was from a urinary tract infection which spread to her kidney, gallbladder, liver and then blood stream.

That's weird she let that get so out of hand

I think all ladies get that sometimes

[Earth 2 Chris]

Yeah, it always seems even sadder when someone dies from something that is seemingly rather routine. But any infection can kill you if not properly taken care of.

Tanya did many Zoom video chats on facebook in 2020--almost weekly for a while; the last being Dec. 19th. Being a big Charlie's Angels fan, I had been watching them, and although I didn't participate on camera, I did submit a question in the comments section that was asked. During these chats, I thought she appeared groggy like she was heavily medicated, and she would often slur her words. I had met her at an autograph show about 10 years ago, and she didn't talk like that. She did say that she was afraid of catching Covid, and was staying at home except to walk the dogs. In her last chat, she does mention that she's been putting off going to the doctor, and that she needs to get a prescription filled. In hindsight, I can't help but thinking if that was what led to her death. Maybe the fear of catching Covid is what made her put off seeing her doctor. So sad.
