Kelly Curtis' death has been confirmed by her sister Jamie Lee Curtis, who announced on Saturday that the actress died peacefully at her home in Bellevue, Idaho at the age of 69. The news, shared in a Facebook post, did not include a cause of death, leaving questions about how Kelly died unanswered at the time of writing.
Kelly was part of one of Hollywood's most recognisable families, born to actors Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh and growing up alongside her younger sister Jamie Lee Curtis. While she maintained a lower public profile than her sibling, her screen credits and family ties placed her firmly within the industry's orbit for decades.
