Celebrities posted on social media Monday evening, following the death of actress Kirstie Alley, who died after a battle with cancer.
Alley, 71, died after a battle with cancer. Her children, True and Lillie Parker said in a post on Twitter that the cancer was recently discovered.
“As iconic as she was on screen, she was an even more amazing mother and grandmother,” her children said.
Celebrities, including her close friends, shared their condolences on social media Monday evening.
John Travolta who co-starred in two films with Alley — “Look Who’s Talking,” and “Look Who’s Talking Too” — shared a tribute via an Instagram post, according to The Associated Press.

Sending love to her family. ❤️
I just head the news about #KirstieAlley. I’ve not spoke w/ her forever, but have her to thank for launching my career. She told me I was funny every single day on Veronica’s Closet, and I believed her. She threw the best parties and gave the parakeets as our wrap gift. Godspeed.
