Officials did not disclose the cause of his death. But it wasn’t because of Kovid-19, said Mike Pingle, a publicist and longtime friend.
“I’m devastated, I’ve been friends with Tanya for 20 years,” Pinzel told CNN. “She was full of energy and we always had a wild time together. She was really an angel and I will miss her very much.”
Roberts was taken to Cedar-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on Dec. 24 when she fell at her California home after a morning outing with her dogs, Pinj told CNN.
He died on Sunday.
Born Victoria Leigh Blum, Roberts began her career as a model before entering the movies. Then a 30-year career in movies and TV.
“The Beastmaster” and “Sheena: Queen of the Jungle.” And appeared in many popular TV shows of the time, including “Fantasy Island,” “Love Boat,” and a season of “Charlie’s Angels” as one of three characters.
Then came his most iconic role to that point. In 1985, she played geologist Stacey Sutton in Roger Moore’s final outing, opposite 007, in A View to a Kill.
Then, in “The Show of the 70’s”, during her turn as Donna Pinciotti’s Dummited Mom, she received a new legion of fans. But she abruptly left the sitcom in her fourth season so she was diagnosed with an illness by her late husband. (He returned the following season as a recurring character.)
Her last on-screen appearance was in the 2005 TV series “Barbershop”.
