Reynolds, daughter Fisher die a day apart

Inseparable! That appears to be what Hollywood legend Debbie Reynolds and actress daughter Carrie Fisher have proven. Debbie has died in Los Angeles, one day after the death of actress Carrie, media outlets reported.

Family sources told TMZ Reynolds died Wednesday at a Los Angeles hospital of a stroke, hours after 911 was called to the home of her son, Todd Fisher.

“She wanted to be with Carrie,” Fisher told Variety.

Reynolds, 84, complained of breathing problems, an unidentified source told the Los Angeles Times.

Margaret Stewart, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles City Fire Department, said paramedics provided medical aid in the 1700 block of Coldwater Canyon Drive, and a woman in fair to serious condition was taken to Cedars Sinai Medical Center.

The woman’s identity, age or symptoms were not revealed, citing privacy laws.

TMZ reported Reynolds was at her son’s house discussing funeral plans for Carrie Fisher, 60, who died after a heart episode last week on a flight from London to Los Angeles.

Her son, Todd Fisher, told CNN that people should “Pray for her” but gave no details.

Reynolds earned her only best actress Oscar nomination for The Unsinkable Molly Brown in 1964. She earlier starred in “Singin’ in the Rain” in 1952. She acted regularly into the 1990s.

She sang the No. 1 hit tune Tammy in 1957.

On TV, Reynolds she starred in The Debbie Reynolds Show in 1969, but the situation comedy lasted only one season.

She earned the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Screen Actors Guild in 2015.

Reynolds was divorced from singing sensation Eddie Fisher in 1959.

Eddie Fisher’s daughter with actress Connie Stevens, Joely Fisher, tweeted Wednesday: “God speed mama.”

Reynolds was married two other times — divorcing from millionaire businessman Harry Karl in 1973 and real estate developer Richard Hamlett in 1996.
