The daughter of Olivia Newton-John, only known as Olivia, Chloe Lattanzi, speaks out about her mother’s final hours before dying in August 2022.
In a recent interview with Koda Kotb, Lattanzi discussed her mother’s final words and how Newton-John maintained her composure until she was unable to speak.
She could only address me as “my sunshine,” Lattanzi said in an interview with Today. And just before she lost her ability to speak, she was cracking jokes. “.
Having fought breast cancer for a long time, the renowned actress and original Grease star passed away. She was 73 years old when this happened.
I love my mom more than anything, she sobbed. She is my mama, you know. She doesn’t remind me of Olivia Newton-John, but I’m glad she did for many other people. “.
Nevertheless, Lattanzi claims that since her mother’s passing six months ago, her sizable fan base has supported her during some of her most trying times.
It was a life raft, after all. It’s been like the universe has given you a warm embrace. I also appreciate everyone who contacted us and offered their friendship and connections. “.
Lattanzi’s interview arrives on the same day that Newton-rendition John’s of Jolene is made public. A Newton-duet John collaboration was one of Dolly Parton’s final songs to be recorded before her passing.
During the interview, John Easterling, Olivia’s husband, attended Lattanzi and said that he still speaks aloud to his late wife. “I give Olivia a lot of thought every day. Yet every day I’m grateful for the 15 years I had with this extraordinary person. “.
The couple tied the knot in 2008. Olivia, according to Easterling, is his true soul mate.
Newton-John’s loved co-stars and family have expressed their loss following her passing, as have her closest friends.
One of the supporting actors was Stockard Channing. If you don’t recall, Channing played Rizzo opposite Newton-John.
In an exclusive interview with People, Channing said, “I don’t think I’ve ever met a nicer person. “Olivia was the very definition of summer; to me, she embodied sunshine, warmth, and grace. “I will terribly miss her. ”.
Along with Channing, Didi Conn also released a statement as Frenchy. Newton-John’s lifelong friend Conn claimed that Olivia could not walk during her final days.
“She said her health was, you know, she wasn’t walking anymore, and she had full-time care, but her husband John and her daughter Chloe were always there, and she said they were just so steadfastly committed,” I recall her saying. “.
Conn then disclosed the contents of her final message to Olivia. She told Olivia, “I hope you know you’re in my heart, always,” in a text message the last time she and she spoke, she told The Mirror. “And she added, “And you are in mine. That was our previous message, delivered on July 5th. Given how much Olivia cared, her passing is highly personal to me and many others. She had a huge heart. “.
John Travolta also issued a somber statement after Olivia’s passing. “Olivia, you changed all of our lives for the better. Your impact was significant. You have my absolute love. We’ll catch up later and be back together. “Your Danny, your John,” the actor wrote beneath a picture of Newton-John.
