Morgan Fairchild, the 73-year-old American actress, has announced the sad news that her longtime fiancé Mark Seiler has passed away. The couple had been together for 36 years.
Fairchild shared the news of Seiler's death on social media, including an old photo of them together at an event. She wrote: “#SadNews I’m so sorry to let you know that my beloved life partner & fiancé, Mark Seiler, passed away last Friday. He’d had Parkinson’s for several years but it seems to be #LongCovid that killed him after his 3rd infection.”
The actress, who rose to fame in the 1970s, added: “He was a warm, brilliant & very funny man, and I am devastated. Hold your loved ones close and please consider wearing a mask. #BeKind I am Sending Love To You All.”
Fairchild was inundated with messages of support and condolences from friends, family, and fans alike. Her sister Cathryn Hartt commented: “I’m so glad I could be with you this week to give sister-love.”
Her last photo shared with fiancé Mark Seiler was last June. The sweet image captured the lovebirds sitting outside at a table for lunch. Fairchild captioned the post: “#OnMyWalk to lunch with my guy! Always fun to have iced chocolate at @BluestoneLane with a nice breeze! Our masks are on the table. #BeKind #MaskUp #VaxxUp”
The couple had made a “long-term commitment to each other” and Fairchild had previously spoken about marrying her long-time partner. However, the actress said in 2020: “I don’t know, it’s definitely a long-term commitment and we’ve been together for a long time, so we may just leave it the way it is right now. We’re both getting older.”
Fairchild has asked everyone to hold their loved ones close and to consider wearing a mask, a request that has been echoed in the messages of condolences she has received. Responding to Richard Stengal, who said he was “so terrible sorry”, Fairchild said she is “still kinda in shock.”
It's a tragic end to a beautiful love story that has spanned several decades. Fairchild's fans are sending their love to the actress during this difficult time.
