Lynda Bellingham, the actress who played the mother in U.K.'s Oxo commercials, died "in her husband's arms" on Sunday, according to The Guardian. The 66-year-old Canadian-born woman was diagnosed with colon cancer in July 2013 and ended her chemotherapy a month ago.
"Lynda died peacefully in her husband's arms yesterday [Sunday] evening at a London hospital," said Bellingham's agent, according to The Guardian. "Her family, to whom she was devoted, would like to thank the nurses and staff for their tremendous care and support."
"As an actor, writer and presenter, Lynda was a consummate professional to the very end," Latimer continued. "Those of us privileged to have known her personally will miss the entertaining, life- enhancing, true and honest friend that blessed our lives."
Bellingham's roles start at 1971, according to IMDb. She has been on shows like "General Hospital" (1972-1973), "Doctor Who" (1986) and received the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) for her charity work.
