After she left the acting world for good in 2001, Suzanne Somers became an entrepreneur, and was featured on the Home Shopping Network (HSN) selling products including clothing and jewelry for more than a decade. From there, she started dabbling in wellness items, such as vitamins, and even an exercise tool called the ThighMaster, which made her millions. Over the course of her life, Suzanne made herself a star. She appeared on Broadway, had her very own residency in Las Vegas, and authored more than a dozen books. She was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2000, before it came back a second time in 2023.
The former actor didn’t let on about how sick she was, but fans had been concerned about her health due to her lack of public appearances and her absence from social media (someone else appeared to be running her accounts for the past several months). However, just days before she died, Suzanne told People magazine that she had made plans for her birthday. “I heard Caroline is making her famous short rib tacos,” Suzanne said, referring to her daughter-in-law. “And I have asked for copious amounts of cake. I really love cake,” she added.

Suzanne didn’t officially turn another year older, however, though her publicist ensures fans that she died “peacefully at home.”
