Has died. The original Charlies Angel and I'd say one of the most beautiful women in the world (in her earlier days)

I know, it's really sad

She was so pretty and only 62.

southeastastra · 25/06/2009 18:36

very sad, she was too young

Hobnobfanatic · 25/06/2009 18:38

So sad - I've only just read that she was going to marry Ryan O'Neill. THey must have known the end was close.

PeachyTheRiverParrettHarlot · 25/06/2009 18:47

I just saw this.

So young, and still beautiful.

poshwellies · 25/06/2009 19:18

RIP
She was a beautiful woman.

Very sad. Cancer's just awful.

braveandcrazy · 25/06/2009 20:23

She was very brave to try to draw attention to the taboo of anal cancer too.

She was only in one series of Charlie's Angels but the one everyone remembers. I was very proud to have a t-shirt with her on even when Cheryl Ladd took over as she was the original and the best!

It's such a shame she and Ryan didn't get to marry. So sad for all her family.

Hadn't heard this but assumed it would be imminent when she got married the other day. Very sad.

cocolepew · 25/06/2009 21:15

I was looking at the MN logo and thought about her, so sad.

Buda · 25/06/2009 21:15

Very sad. She was so young and so beautiful.

Lizzylou · 25/06/2009 21:18

Gosh, I so wanted to be her in Charlies Angels, beautiful woman

hatesponge · 25/06/2009 21:21
Sad
Bonneville · 25/06/2009 21:27

So sad. Had no idea she was ill. Did she marry Ryan? - Im a bit confused.

Tinker · 25/06/2009 21:30

Looks like they didn't manage to get married: "O'Neal, who has been with Fawcett on and off since 1982, recently disclosed they would finally get married, but never got the chance to exchange vows". Poignant.

CJCregg · 25/06/2009 23:11

I am really sad about this. A life and death full of dignity. And such a beautiful woman. So brave to make the documentary about her cancer.

And her terribly sad death is going to be overshadowed and forgotten because of Michael Jackson ...

aristocat · 25/06/2009 23:47

my favourite angel too.
wanted to be her when i was a girl............the smile.....the hair....
stunning.

MatNanPlus · 25/06/2009 23:59

So sad

thumbwitch · 26/06/2009 00:01

such a shame - she was my favourite Angel too - I loved her hair and her eyes and wanted to be her.

Fruitbeard · 26/06/2009 09:25

RIP.

I loved her hair flicks... Charlie's Angels was such a part of my childhood, poor woman, so sad that she didn't get to marry Ryan O'Neal in the end

chevre · 26/06/2009 09:28

this is v. sad. she was amazing looking.

but why are the news etc not even mentioning what cancer she had? is it not acceptable? v. strange.
