Later on Monday, the spokesman made the shocking revision that Tanya Roberts was mistakenly declared dead, as a result of a miscommunication. Tanya's partner Lance O'Brien had visited the actress in the hospital after her collapse.

But today, O'Brien received a call from the hospital and confirmed that Roberts has indeed passed away. So it's a sad certainty: Tanya Roberts has died at age 65.
