"Star Wars" has lost its most beloved princess.
Carrie Fisher, best known for her portrayal of
the plucky Princess Leia in George Lucas' epic intergalactic movie
series, died Tuesday, days after suffering a heart attack on a plane.
She was 60 years old.
"It is with a very deep sadness that Billie
Lourd confirms that her beloved mother Carrie Fisher passed away at 855
this morning," Simon Halls, a representative for Fisher's daughter, said
in a statement to NBC News. "She was loved by the world and she will be
missed profoundly."
Fisher, who had recently wrapped the filming of "Star Wars: Episode
VIII," the second of three new "Star Wars" films, was in the midst of a
tour to promote her eighth book, an autobiography called "The Princess
Diarist," when she suffered the medical emergency.
