Debbie Reynolds, one of Hollywood's biggest stars in the 1950s and 1960s, died Wednesday, one day after her daughter Carrie Fisher passed away, Reynolds' son Todd Fisher said.
Reynolds, 84, was taken to a Los Angeles hospital Wednesday afternoon, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Todd Fisher told CNN, "My mother passed away a short time ago. She spoke to me this morning and said she missed Carrie."
Fisher did not give a cause of death.
Reynolds had long career in entertainment
Reynolds had complained of breathing problems, an unidentified source told The Times.
"She's with Carrie now," Todd Fisher said.
The Los Angeles County Fire Department told CNN it responded to a call where Carrie Fisher owns a home, but would not name the female patient it transported to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. The patient was in fair to serious condition, the fire department said.
