late, legendary singer and actor Frank Sinatra, died Friday at
the age of 101, her daughter, also named Nancy Sinatra, said in
an internet tweet.
"My mother passed away peacefully tonight at the age of
101," the younger Nancy Sinatra, 78, wrote on her official
Twitter page. "She was a blessing and the light of my life. God
speed, Momma. Thank you for everything."
The elder Nancy Sinatra was married for 12 years to one of
the most famous stars of the 20th Century, who starred such
blockbuster movies, as "From Here to Eternity," and "Guys and
Dolls", and is known for his signature jazz song, "New York, New
York."
The couple, both New Jersey natives, had three children, and
divorced in 1951, after her husband had a string of extramarital
affairs which were made public in Hollywood gossip columns, The
New York Times reported.
He married actress and Hollywood bombshell, Ava Gardner,
just 10 days after his divorce from Nancy Sinatra.
But the pair remained close until Frank Sinatra`s death in
1998 at the age of 82, after a heart attack, the newspaper
reported.
The late Nancy Sinatra never remarried and lived a quiet
life in Beverly Hills, California and focused on charity work,
the newspaper reported.
A spokesperson for the family could not be reached early
Saturday, and no other details about her death were available.
