Farrah Fawcett's Friend Reveals Her Final Words Before Her Death

Farrah Fawcett‘s dear friend, Mela Murphy, is opening up about the late star’s final words before her death in 2009.

She was by Farrah‘s side at St. John’s Health Center in Los Angeles until her death, and revealed the details of her final moments to People.

According to Mela, Farrah was worried about her son, Redmond O’Neal.

“She was saying his name, ‘Redmond.’ That was the last thing she said,” Mela revealed.

“I told her I’d take care of him, that I’ll always be there for him. I said, ‘You can go now.’ It was just a few hours before she died.”

Farrah died of anal cancer on June 25, 2009 at age 62.

Farrah Fawcett's Son Redmond O'Neal Arrested for Robbing Convenience Store at Knifepoint

Redmond O’Neal has been arrested for robbing a convenience store and threatening the clerk with a knife on Tuesday (May 8) in Santa Monica, Calif.

According to Los Angeles Police, the 33-year-old son of the late Farrah Fawcett and Ryan O’Neal walked into the store armed with a knife and demanded the clerk take out the money from the register.

Redmond fled the store after the clerk handed him an undisclosed amount of money just before 2:30am before he was arrested nearby when the detectives allegedly found a knife from on him.

Redmond was arrested on a robbery charge and is currently being held on $50,000 bail.

Back in 2008, Redmond was arrested for a DUI and drug possession, and again in 2011 on heroin and gun possessions charges.

In 2015, he was sentenced to three years in state prison for violating his probation, but was released just over a year later.
