Tanya's rep tells TMZ, she was on a walk with her dogs on Christmas Eve and when she returned home she collapsed. She was taken to the hospital and put on a ventilator but never got better. We're told it was NOT COVID-related. Tanya died today.
In the days leading up to her collapse, we're told Tanya appeared perfectly healthy ... even doing video chats for her fans.
Tanya was a go-to model and actress in her heyday -- so much so, she even appeared as one of the Bond girls, Stacey Sutton, in "A View to a Kill," opposite Roger Moore.
She also starred in campy adventure fantasy flicks like "Sheena" and "The Beastmaster," plus a bunch of raunchy comedies, slashers movies and action/erotica B-films like "Sins of Desire," "Legal Tender," "Deep Down," "Inner Sanctum," "Night Eyes," "Almost Pregnant," "Favorite Deadly Sins" and "Tourist Trap," plus several others. All in all, she has 41 acting credits to her name dating back to '70s.
Speaking of that era, she might best remembered as Donna Pinciotti's mom, Midge, on "That '70s Show" -- who was always getting ogled by the boys in the neighborhood. Tanya was portrayed as a dumb blonde, who eventually left her TV family and the show entirely to deal with her hubby's real-life illness.

It’s not judgmental at all. I didn’t badly of her when I typed that. People who die young often led wild lives when they were young. It’s a tradeoff that happens.
Shocked...seriously shocked.
Oh, wow, look at those eyes!!!
RIP Tanya. Thank you for the escapist fun that you gave us all in your career. You will be missed.
As Maria Carey would say: “I don’t know her.”
creepy
We’re still in the Rona Times. Could be anyone!
A celebrity death that stresses it was _not_ related to Covid
Musta been a Democrat.
Who died of Covid.
“I only have eyes for bunnies, baby!”
Rest in Peace, Tanya. You will be missed by fans all over the world.
Yikes!!!
Heh. The obvious question I completely missed.
That’s probably the only case since they started the COVID Nonsense, to not be covid related.....
I think she was pretty, but then she was about my age....
Oh, you’re right about that. She was definitely attractive.
I just didn’t recognize her. Of course I don’t own a TV, and rarely go to (went to) movies.
I am very shocked at the news of Tanya Roberts’s death...
Many people consider A VIEW TO A KILL to be a horrible James Bond film...
I enjoy the film...I don’t mind watching it from time to time...Christopher Walken was fine as the villain...
The fight scene at the top of the Golden Gate bridge was fine...
A VIEW TO A KILL is not on the same level as FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE or GOLDFINGER...But, it is not that bad...
Roger Moore’s first Bond film was LIVE AND LET DIE...Jane Seymour was the Bond girl...She is 69 years old...
Moore’s next Bond film was THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN...Britt Ekland is 78 years old...
Moore’s third Bond film was THE SPY WHO LOVED ME...Barbara Bach is 73 years old...
Moore’s fourth Bond film was MOONRAKER...Lois Chiles is 73 years old...
Moore’s fifth Bond film was FOR YOUR EYES ONLY...Carole Bouquet is 63 years old...Lynn-Holly Johnson is 62 years old...
Moore’s sixth Bond film was OCTOPUSSY...Maud Adams is 75 years old...
Roger Moore’s last Bond film was A VIEW TO A KILL...Tanya Roberts was 65 years old when she passed away...
Britt Ekland is the oldest Bond girl, during Roger Moore years, still alive...
Lynn-Holly Johnson is the youngest Bond girl, during Moore years, still alive...Last year, she got Covid...She did get over it eventually...I did post an article about her in FR last year.
RIP to Ms. Tanya Roberts...
All I remember about View to a Kill was Duran Duran... tells you my age! 😂
