Kirstie Alley Children; Meet Lillie Price Stevenson And William True Stevenson

Known for her appearances in Cheers, Veronica’s Closet, and Look Who’s Talking, actress Kirstie Alley has passed away at the age of 71.

On Monday night, Alley’s children William “True” Stevenson and Lillie Price Stevenson announced her death in a statement they uploaded on their mother’s social media accounts.

The news of her passing was independently confirmed by her manager.
According to her family, Alley’s recent cancer diagnosis necessitated treatment in Florida’s Moffitt Cancer Center.

Saying, “To all our friends, far and wide around the world… The statement read, “It is with great sadness that we share the news that our beautiful, strong, and beloved mother passed away after a courageous battle with cancer.” She had her loved ones about her and battled valiantly, giving us hope that she would continue to delight in life no matter what was ahead. She was a terrific mother and grandma in addition to being a screen legend.

Thank you to the wonderful staff at the Moffitt Cancer Center for their treatment. We take inspiration from our mother’s boundless enthusiasm for her family, friends, and the world at large. She loved her children, grandchildren, and the many animals she cared for deeply. Please keep our family’s privacy at this time as we appreciate the prayers and support.
actor Parker Stevenson, Alley’s ex-husband, penned, “I am so grateful for our years together, and for the two amazingly beautiful children and now grandchildren that we have. You are irreplaceable, and you will be missed.
I did something unusual on an aircraft today. According to Deadline, Ted Danson, who played Sam Malone opposite Alley on Cheers, admitted to watching an old episode. That episode when Tom Berenger continues proposing to Kirstie and she keeps saying no even though she really wants to say yes. Kirstie’s performance was outstanding. Her portrayal of a woman suffering from a nervous breakdown was heartbreaking and hilarious at the same time. She made me laugh when she filmed the scene 30 years ago, and she still makes me laugh now. The news of Kirstie’s passing reached me just as I stepped off the plane. Although I am deeply saddened by her passing, I am always appreciative of the many times she made me laugh. My best wishes are with her offspring. They know that their mom was a good person with a big heart. I’m going to miss her.
Former Frasier Crane on Cheers Kelsey Grammer remarked, “I always believed sorrow for a public figure is a private affair, but I will say I loved her.”
Alley’s co-star in Look Who’s Talking, John Travolta, has also paid tribute. One of the most meaningful connections I’ve ever made was with Kirstie. “I love you Kirstie,” he penned. I have no doubt that our paths will cross again.”
Alley made her big break in 1987 when she was cast as Rebecca Howe, the bar’s new manager, on the sitcom Cheers. She was born in Kansas in 1951. The show’s creators, Glen and Les Charles, needed to quickly find a replacement for Shelley Long, so they cast Alley. After searching high and low for an unknown actor, the Charles brothers decided to hire Alley after receiving a recommendation from Carl Reiner, who had previously directed her in the 1987 film Summer School and vouched for her comedic abilities. For her work on the show, Alley was nominated for and won both the Golden Globe and the Emmy.

In 1994, she received her second Emmy for her role as David’s mother in the TV movie David’s Mother.
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Summer School, Drop Dead Gorgeous, Woody Allen’s Deconstructing Harry, and Look Who’s Talking and Look Who’s Talking Too are just a few of the movies Alley was in during the 1980s and 1990s. After her run on Cheers ended, she primarily appeared in humorous parts on television, such as the title role in Veronica’s Closet, the lead in the short-lived sitcom Kirstie, and a recurring role in the horror-comedy anthology series Scream Queens.

Alley’s weight was a major topic of discussion in the early 2000s, and she responded by creating and starring in the program Fat Actress, in which she played a fictionalized version of herself as a fat actor navigating Hollywood, fighting off predatory tabloids, and searching for love.
After acting, Alley turned into reality television, where she has since competed on Dancing with the Stars, the UK’s Celebrity Big Brother, and the US version of The Masked Singer and where she documented her journey to lose 75 pounds (34 kilograms) in the show Kirstie Alley’s Big Life.
In 1970, Alley wed her high school lover, Bob Alley (no relation), and the couple eventually split up the following year (1977). She wed Stevenson in 1983, and the couple eventually adopted two children. The couple split up in 1997.
In 1979, Alley became a Scientologist after dealing with a cocaine addiction; she later said that the church’s drug treatment program was responsible for her recovery.
Alley has been a vocal supporter of ex-US president Donald Trump since 2016, and she recently claimed she had been “blackballed” in Hollywood due to her politics. She said, “You can be cooking meth and sleeping with hookers, but as long as, apparently, you didn’t vote for Trump… I kind of feel like I’m in the Twilight Zone.
