After the news of Farrah Fawcett’s death, fans around the world are expressing their grief over losing the actress to cancer. And now her ex-husband, actor Lee Majors, is adding his voice to the others mourning her passing at age 62.

“My wife Faith and I were saddened to hear of Farrah’s passing,” Lee tells Entertainment Tonight. “She fought a tremendous battle against a terrible disease. She was an angel on earth and now an angel forever.”

Farrah and Lee were married in 1972, before separating in 1979. They were formally divorced in 1982, and Farrah went on to become involved with the love of her life, Ryan O’Neal.
