Parker Stevenson, Kirstie Alley’s ex-husband, is lamenting her passing at age 71. The “Hardy Boys” alum posted a vintage picture and a letter to the Emmy winner on Instagram on Monday.
I am extremely appreciative of our years together, as well as our two stunning children and now grandchildren, he stated in his letter to Kirstie. The 70-year-old “Baywatch” alum said, “You will be missed. Sincerely, Parker
Six years after Alley’s divorce from her first husband Bob Alley was finalized, the former pair were married in 1983. Before divorcing in 1997, she and Stevenson welcomed son William “True,” 30, and daughter Lillie, 28.
William and Lillie said, “We are heartbroken to inform you that our amazing, fierce, and beloved mother has passed away following a struggle with cancer, which was only recently detected.” “She fought valiantly while being supported by her closest friends and family. The siblings said, “As iconic as she was on television, she was an even more incredible mother and grandmother.”
The “Masked Singer” alum received several compliments on social media, including from her “Look Who’s Talking” co-star John Travolta. The actor and fellow Scientologist, 68, enthused, “Kirstie was one of the most amazing partnerships I’ve ever had.” “Kirstie, I adore you.”
The Golden Globe winner and the “Grease” actor promised to “see each other again.” In messages to Deadline, Alley’s fellow “Cheers” alumni expressed their grief as well.
“I always believed grief for a public figure is a private matter, but I will say I loved her,” Kelsey Grammer wrote.
