Tanya Roberts, best known for her roles in ‘The 70s Show’ and ‘View to a Kill’, has passed away.
Authorities did not release the cause of his death. But it was not due to Kovid-19, said his publicist and long-time friend Mike Pingel.
“I was devastated, I have a friendship with Tanya for 20 years,” Pingle told CNN. “She was full of energy and we always had a wild time together. She was truly an angel and I will miss her very much.”
Pingel told CNN that Roberts was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on December 24 when she collapsed at her California home.
He died on Sunday.
