American actress Shelley Duvall has reportedly passed away at the age of 75.

According to reports, the actress’ partner, Dan Gilroy, confirmed her death to The Hollywood Reporter.

Duvall died in her sleep from complications of diabetes at her home in Blanco, Texas, on Thursday.

“Dear, sweet, wonderful life partner and friend left us. Too much suffering lately, now she’s free. Fly away, beautiful Shelley,” THR quoted Gilroy as saying. Duvall began her career in the 1970 dark comedy ‘Brewster McCloud.’ She won the Cannes Film Festival’s Best Actress award for her role in the 1977 drama ‘3 Women.’

 Three years later, she starred as Olive Oyl opposite Robin Williams in Robert Altman’s musical version of ‘Popeye.’ However, Duvall fell out of favor in Hollywood and was off-screen for two decades before making a comeback in 2023’s ‘The Forest Hills.’

 She was best known for her performances in ‘The Shining,’ ‘Annie Hall,’ and ‘Nashville.’
