Hollywood beauty Stella Stevens dies due to Alzheimer's
Los Angeles: Hollywood actress Stella Stevens, who appeared in several popular movies in the 70s and 80s, has died after suffering from Alzheimer's, her family confirmed.
The Hollywood beauty was 84.
She will be remembered by fans for starring opposite Hollywood sensation Elvis Presley in Girls! Girls! Girls! and with Jerry Lewis in The Nutty Professor.
She “had been in hospice for quite some time with stage seven Alzheimer’s,” her son, actor, and producer Andrew Stevens told CNN.
