Farrah Fawcett’s death bed wish
“Please take care of my boy - make sure he has a good life.”
Those were Farrah Fawcett’s heartbreaking last words to her longtime love Ryan O’Neal before she slipped into a coma and lost her valiant battle with cancer, sources exclusively told The Enquirer.
A sobbing Ryan answered her deathbed plea by vowing to look after the couple’s troubled 24-year-old son Redmond.
As she lay dying, the 62-year-old Charlie’s Angels star was not told that her beloved “Red” was behind bars for drug offenses, insiders say.
A heavily sedated Farrah “mistook Ryan for Red a number of times in her final days, and she was so out of it that she barely knew what was happening in the end,” said the friend.
“She didn’t realize Red was in jail, which was a blessing in some ways. If she’d known, she would have been distraught.”
“Farrah would never marry Ryan. She wanted everything to be left to Red - that’s always been her wish,” said the friend.
“Before she lost her ability to speak, her last words to Ryan were, ‘Please take care of my boy - please make sure he has a good life.’ Farrah felt guilt for not always being there for Red.
“She regretted the time apart from the true love of her life - her son. Redmond felt guilty, too, because he felt that he’d failed her as a son.
“When he was allowed out of jail to visit her at home in April, Farrah was so heavily sedated on morphine that she didn’t even realize he was wearing shackles.”‘
