Tanya Roberts, who played Roger Moore’s love interest in A View to a Kill and later starred in the sitcom That ‘70s Show as Midge Pinciotti, has been hospitalised after falling at her home. Her publicist, Mike Pingel, mistakenly reported the 65-year-old dead on Monday, leading multiple outlets, including the Guardian, to publish stories saying she had died. Pingel later told the Associated Press that Roberts was still alive as of 10am in California but was in a poor condition. He had said earlier that Roberts collapsed in her home and was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Pingel said Robert’s husband, Lance O’Brien, told him that he held his wife and she “seemed for him to slip away”. The publicist said he was awaiting further updates on Roberts’ condition. Pingel told the PA news agency that the family was waiting for further news from medics, adding: “It does not look good.” The US website TMZ first reported her death, saying she had collapsed while walking her dogs on 24 December and was admitted to hospital. Born Victoria Leigh Blum in 1955, Roberts grew up in New York before moving to Hollywood in 1977 in search of fame. Her chance came when she replaced Shelley Hack in the TV series Charlie’s Angels, becoming the third Angel, Julie, alongside Jaclyn Smith and Cheryl Ladd. One of Roberts highest profile roles was playing geologist Stacey Sutton in 1985’s A View to a Kill. Roberts also appeared in such fantasy adventure films as The Beastmaster and Hearts and Armour.
