Diane Keaton, Oscar-winning actress and Hollywood veteran, died last Saturday, 11, at the age of 79. To date, the family has not yet officially announced the cause of his death.
The North American magazine People heard from a person who would be a friend of the actress about the case, without identifying her. “She took a turn for the worse very suddenly, it was heartbreaking for everyone who loved her. It was unexpected, especially for someone so spirited and with so much strength,” said the source.
“In recent months, she was surrounded only by her closest family, who chose to keep things very private. Even longtime friends weren’t completely aware of what was going on,” he continued.

Another source told the magazine: “Until a few months ago, she went out to walk her dog every day. She usually dressed the same, with a hat and sunglasses, regardless of the weather.”
“She was always a nice, funny and communicative person. She spoke to the dog as if it were a person. She was eccentric and had that ‘old Hollywood’ aura. She was a very, very special person”, he concluded.
