That is so sad. I'd assumed she was much younger. I loved her in Hampstead, such a good fun film.

Only watched Baby Boom with my DD last week. So sad. Great lady.

Just adding to the bunch of people who think this is sad. Very sad, a very funny lady and brilliant actress.

Fabulous woman. RIP.

I’m so sad about this. Baby boom classic film from my childhood. I was an 80s kid!

Loved her a fantastic actress ! she will be sorely missed in Hollywood.

JaninaDuszejko · 11/10/2025 21:05

Gosh, she's the same age as my Mum. She was in so many wonderful films, she'll be missed.

BatchCookBabe · 11/10/2025 21:06

Yes indeed, she will be missed! 💞

Shock loved her.

OliviaBonas · 11/10/2025 21:14

The saddest news 😢

AffIt · 11/10/2025 21:18

Oh, how sad - she was fabulous!

But a life and a career well-lived, and she was loved: surely that's more than the best we can ask for.

Cynic17 · 11/10/2025 21:21

"Iconic" is a much over-used word, but she truly was iconic as Annie Hall - the role of a lifetime.

Yes that is true. She had a very successful career, and she seemed to have a good personal life. (AFAIK.)

So sad, I only watched Reds a few days ago for the first time in years, I forgot Gene Hackman was in it and found it quite sad, and now the beautiful and talented Diane Keaton has gone too.

FreeTheOakTree · 11/10/2025 21:27

The sadness I feel at this news has caught me by surprise. I have loved and watched over and over, so many of her films.

A wonderful actress, and by all accounts, a thoroughly lovely human being. May she rest in eternal peace.

Same here. I know she was a 'decent age' but it's such a loss, as she was wonderful. Sad

Amazing Actress, always believed the person she played was real, she gave us lots of wonderful films and memories RIP Diane, condolences to her two children Dexter and Duke xx

Velvian · 11/10/2025 21:45

That's so sad. I think she got more stylish the older she got. I really loved Father of the Bride growing up. Very sad news.

Peridot1 · 11/10/2025 21:50

So sad and shocked to read this. She was so vibrant and great in every
role I saw her in. 79 is not old these days.

RIP Diane.

Icreatedausernameyippee · 11/10/2025 21:51
