Kirstie Alley, star of 'Cheers' and 'Look Who's Talking,' dies at 71 after private cancer battle

True and Lillie Parker, shared the news in a statement posted to their late mother's Instagram Monday"We are sad to inform you that our incredible, fierce and loving mother has passed away after a battle with cancer, only recently discovered," read the statement. Alley had not previously disclosed her cancer diagnosis.

In 1991, Alley won an Emmy for best lead actress in a comedy series for the role. She would take a second Emmy for best lead actress in a miniseries or television movie in 1993 for playing the title role in the CBS TV movie “David's Mother." She dealt with the same subject matter in the 2010 A&E reality series"Kirstie Alley’s Big Life," which chronicled her attempt to lose weight and launch a weight-loss program while working as a single mother in an unconventional household that included pet lemurs.

The last thing people will remember is the racists hatred she spreaded on her Twitter feed…

Great actress! Prayers for the family.

You forgot to add Trumphumper to her resume.

Great

'The Wrath of Khan', 'For Richer or Poorer', 'Veronica's Closet'... loved her work! 😪

Rest in peace, beloved...

Actually when I think of her I think of that crowd called Scientology and then cheers

I loved Kirstie
