Mourning the Loss of Olivia Newton-John: Remembering the Iconic Grease Star’s Legacy

Mourning for Olivia Newton-John (✝73) is still great! The Grease celebrity succumbed to cancer on August 8, 2022. The actress had previously fought breast cancer for several years. In September last year, she should have celebrated her 74th birthday with her loved ones. Her family, friends and fans miss her terribly – especially today: Because a year ago, Olivia passed away…

Olivia will never be forgotten! In 1979, the native Brit made her big breakthrough on the big screen. Alongside John Travolta (69), she became famous as the shy Sandy in “Grease” – the strip is still a cult today. Her co-star dedicated touching lines to the former Eurovision Song Contest participant shortly after her death on Instagram: “My dearest Olivia, you have made all of our lives so much better […] You belong to me from the first moment and forever! Your Danny, your John.”

Olivia had battled cancer for almost 30 years. A breast lump was first discovered in 1992. In 2013, the aggressive disease returned – after all, the doctors were able to shrink the tumor with the help of hormone treatment. Her husband John Easterling and her only daughter Chloe Lattanzi (37) were always by her side during the difficult years.
