Somer’s death was revealed by her publicist R. Couri Hay. He revealed that the actress died just a day before she was to turn 77 years old. The actress had had a battle with breast cancer for over 23 years. Couri shared that Somers was surrounded by family members, who had all arrived to celebrate her 77th birthday. However, she ended up passing away before the celebrations could take place. She left behind her grieving widower, Alan Hamel.
Her look-alike granddaughter, Camelia like her famous grandmother was also in show business. Her debut role was as Charlotte in the famous CBS daytime soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful.
Camelia was Somers’ grandchild through her son Bruce Jr., whom she had in her first marriage to Bruce Somers. Camelia, born in 1995, shared a close bond with her grandmother.
