Olivia de Havilland, legendary Golden Age Hollywood star, has died at age 104.

The news was confirmed to Fox News by her rep, as well as her son-in-law Andrew Chulack.

The two-time Academy Award winner was born in 1916 and died on Sunday of natural causes in her Paris home, The Hollywood Reporter reports.

The star was the last surviving star of "Gone With the Wind," which had recently come under scrutiny for its depiction of slavery in the pre-abolition South. De Havilland was nominated for an Oscar for her role in the movie.

The actress won two Oscars in her lifetime -- one for her work in "To Each His Own" and another for "The Heiress."

A true classy lady.

Absolutely. She is the passing of an era . . . far better than the amoral thugs we have today in the public discourse. A big bump for the life of a super lady . . . may people look back at her and learn from her life.
