RIPIconic Star Zsa Zsa Gabor Has Died at Age 99

Rest in peace, Zsa Zsa Gabor.

The Hungarian actress and socialite — who was famous for being famous! — sadly died from a heart attack on Sunday, Dec. 18 after suffering from dementia for the past five years. She was just shy of 100-years-old at the time of her passing.

“I am pleased that she is finally out of her misery,” her longtime rep, Ed Lozzi, confirmed in a statement to Variety. “For the past five years, Zsa Zsa has suffered chronic dementia, locked away in her mansion laying in a hospital bed being fed through tubes in her naval, not able to speak, see, write or hear. Nor knowing who she was or how famous she was.”
