The actress, who starred in the hit sitcom Married With Children, was quickly taken to hospital where she was tragically pronounced dead.
Iconic singer Perry Farrell of Jane’s Addiction had once called the actress the “Latin Marilyn Monroe” for her old-fashioned, movie-star visage after she appeared in a video for the band’s track Stop.
Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Homicide investigators are looking into the cause of her death.
A statement from the department said: “On Monday, March 24th, at approximately 7:15 PM, Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel responded to a medical emergency call on Westlake Boulevard, in Malibu.
“Paramedics transported a female adult to an area hospital where she was later pronounced dead.
“The cause of death is undetermined, and an autopsy is pending.”
The police statement added: “This investigation is ongoing, and there is no additional information available at this time.”
While officers have no evidence of foul play, detectives will have to wait until her autopsy is completed before making any conclusions.
Tributes have poured in for the actress on social media following the news of her tragic death.
