"Days of Our Lives" star Mary Beth Evans recently posted sad news on Instagram, writing, "On Friday, Dec. 2nd, my mother Dianne passed away. Although my parents were divorced when I was six years old, she had already laid a strong foundation of love and discipline that has carried us through our lives." The post was accompanied by a picture of her and her mother enjoying a party. She continued, "She was a lover and a nurturer by nature and having married seven times, she never feared trying again. My three siblings and I, along with our spouses, made sure her life was as comfortable as we possibly could; and just in August, she told me she was happy and content."
Evans described her mother as "unconventional" and a "butterfly" whose enduring impact was felt by all she met. Evans explained that during her mother's declining health, the family was there for her, ultimately writing, "We will keep her in our hearts forever." Co-star Stephen Nichols replied, saying, "So sorry for your loss, sweetheart. Dianne was one of a kind. I have many fond memories of the times we spent over the years when she came to see us. She is at peace. Love to you and the entire family."
Amidst the heartbreak and fan condolences, Soaps reported that Evans continues to post heartwarming photos of her grandson, and the fans are happy to share in her joy during this difficult time.
