Tanya Roberts, known for playing Stacey Sutton in the 1985 James Bond film A View To A Kill and Midge Pinciotti on That '70s Show between 1998 and 2004, died Monday night after it was prematurely reported by many outlets that she had died on Sunday night. She was 65.
On Tuesday, Roberts' publicist, Mike Pingel, confirmed to Variety that she died Monday night at 9.30pm PT due to a urinary tract infection that spread to her kidney, gallbladder, liver and blood stream. However, Pingel mistakenly told many publications that Roberts had died on Sunday night after her partner, Lance O'Brien, visited her in the hospital and presumed she was no longer living. She remained hospitalised in "dire" condition Monday, Pingel told Variety earlier that day.
