R.I.P Debbie Reynolds: Dead at 84
 

How quickly things can change in 5 years.

Her last words were "I Want to Be with Carrie"


Debbie Reynolds -- who rose to stardom in "Singin' in the Rain" and quickly became a staple among Hollywood royalty -- died Wednesday as a result of a stroke, TMZ has learned ... just one day after her daughter Carrie Fisher passed away ... this according to her son Todd.

Debbie was rushed to a hospital shortly after 1 PM when someone at the Beverly Hills home of her son, Todd, called 911 to report a possible stroke. We're told Debbie and Todd were making funeral plans for Carrie, who died Tuesday of cardiac arrest.

Debbie famously divorced Eddie Fisher in 1959 after his affair with Elizabeth Taylor. Debbie married 2 more times in 1960 and 1984.

She played iconic roles in "Tammy and the Bachelor" and "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" ... for which she earned an Oscar nomination.

Carrie's relationship with Debbie was the focus of Carrie's semi-autobiographical book, "Postcards from the Edge," which was later adapted for the big screen, starring Meryl Streep and Shirley MacLaine.

Debbie's survived by her son Todd, who tells us, "She's with Carrie."

DEAD AT 84

I feel sorry for Billie Lourd, lost her mother and grandmother within 48 hours.

Now she'll have to attend 2 funerals so sad.

Carrie Fisher loved her dog Gary. He's living with Billie Lourd now.

Damn..what a shame for the family.RIP Debbie

Did she kill herself?

A day after her daughter died.

Man...that's rough on the family.

Souls are leaving this plane in mass before the whole shit house goes up in flames.

'Cuz everyone knows a coalition of a few dead celebs is a harbinger of the apocalypse. :helpme

That is sad. RIP.

I am sticking around for the shit storm myself. TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP

It's very difficult emotionally for a parent to see their child die. At an advanced age like Debbie Reynolds was there are also physical limitations also to this stress.

Must be a very sad time for the remaining family.

Condolences and RIP mother & daughter -- very sad event.

Yeah couldn't imagine my kid dying before me. That poor family, so much heartache so quickly

God will provide. He is just testing their faith. :1orglaugh

Un fucking real. I feel badly for their whole family. RIP, AGAIN....

Must be a shocking ending of the year for the family and closest friends. RIP

It's hard to think that just 3 days ago Carrie Fisher was on a plane back to L.A. to celebrate Christmas with her mom.

Happy plans and fun times.

And now just incredibly tragic. :(

Reak sad news so soon after her daughter.

horrible news, obviously the tragic loss of her daughter was just a bit too much for her :(

tough time for the family :(

In a cosmic way this makes complete sense :thumbsup

Terrible news.. sad news..

Just came across an article with 4 roles Reynolds played. I never knew she was the spider mom in Charlotte's Web. The clip of her below in Will & Grace is funny

I never knew that either. Thanks for sharin' that.

Sad indeed R.I.P Debbie
