Her partner Ryan O'Neal said: "After a long and brave battle with cancer, our beloved Farrah has passed away. Although this is an extremely difficult time for her family and friends, we take comfort in the beautiful times that we shared with Farrah over the years and the knowledge that her life brought joy to so many people around the world," he said.

Her death has come just weeks after her TV documentary was broadcast.
The video diary chronicled her battle with anal cancer in her final months.
O'Neal said she had wanted to tell her story on her own terms.

O'Neal, who has been with Fawcett on and off since 1982, recently disclosed they would finally get married, but never got the chance to exchange vows.

Yes, it's sad about Farah. 62 is more or less the threshold of retirement with a lot to look forward to.

Now, Michael - only 50. It's so sad. These things usually come in three's. I hope not!

They have both left a lot of people with happy memories. May they rest in peace.

A private funeral for actress Farrah Fawcett will be held on Tuesday, it has been announced. The service will take place at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles at 1600 local time, church officials said.

The actress died on Thursday aged 62 after losing a three-year battle with anal cancer. Her illness was chronicled in a US TV documentary, Farrah's Story, which was broadcast earlier this year.

The star became a 1970s icon after appearing in the US TV series Charlie's Angels.

She declared herself cancer-free four months after originally being diagnosed with cancer in September 2006, only to have the disease return in May 2007.

Her death came just days after actor Ryan O'Neal, Fawcett's partner since 1982, revealed they would finally get married, but the pair never got the chance to exchange vows. The couple have one son together, Redmond.
