She was best known as the last Charlie's Angel, but was also a Bond girl and was a regular on That '70s Show. She died after a brief hospitalization, where she was put on a ventilator after collapsing at home on Christmas Eve. Her death was not related to COVID.

Talk about strange. I didn't click on either story but thanks to COVID-19 I have access to several newspapers that I read appearing as they actually do, and even before, if I went to a certain library, I had access to the text versions of selected articles. So I went to the text version to copy the text of an article and I found two separate headlines. One article said she was hospitalized and the other said she died. The real paper surely only has one.

Apparently her partner spread the initial incorrect information she had died but before it could be corrected she actually did die.

The actual newspaper printed the story she was hospitalized. Normally, the text versions don't include articles that weren't in the actual paper, but for some papers, the text articles appear on different dates from when the articles appeared in the actual papers.
