Olivia Newton-John's daughter Chloe Lattanzi has paid tribute to her late mother in the wake of the star's death.
Chloe shared a series of touching snaps of herself the Grease icon throughout her life following her death being announced earlier this evening.
Olivia's husband John Easterling confirmed the sad news as he shared a statement via Olivia's Facebook page earlier today - with stars such as John Travolta quickly paying tribute to the star online.
The actress, who played Sandy in the hit musical movie Grease, passed away at her ranch in Southern California this morning [Monday August 8].
The first image shared by the star's daughter on Instagram was a black-and-white photo of a young Chloe kissing her mother on the face during a photo shoot.
She also included other images taken throughout her childhood - including a sweet beachside snap - alongside more recent pictures.
Olivia shared Chloe with ex-husband actor Matt Lattanzi, whom the late star married in 1984 and divorced amicably in 1995.
Olivia previously revealed that before Chloe's birth, she suffered from multiple miscarriages that left her broken-hearted, reported Fabiosa.
Discussing her experience with pregnancy loss in her memoir, Olivia wrote: "Each time my heart was broken."
While expecting Chloe in 1985, the late star was closely monitored by doctors because she was considered "an older mother" at 38 years old.
Thankfully, Chloe arrived safely in January 1986 and the actress went on to often pay tribute to her only child.
"I had a beautiful child, and if I never have another child, I’m blessed already. I can’t complain," Olivia sweetly declared as she suffered more miscarriages following giving birth to Chloe.
Last week, Chloe called her mother her "best friend" as she shared a snap of herself alongside Olivia just days before her sad death.
"I worship this woman. My mother. My best friend. @therealonj," Chloe captioned a snap of her and Olivia posing in a field three days ago.
Chloe's famous followers rushed to console her within minutes of her sharing her heartbreaking Instagram update.
"Dearest Chloe- my deepest, most sorrow filled condolences to you at this heart breaking time. You are loved. She was so proud of you!!! Xoxo," Jann Arden wrote underneath Olivia's daughter's collection of snaps.
Podcast host Angie Kent added: "Oh god Chloe I’m so sorry. What an honor to have seen you and your Mumma together and how much you made each other smile. Thinking of you and your beautiful family. She’ll always be with you angel xx"

We ask that everyone please respect the family’s privacy during this very difficult time.
