Suzanne Somers struggled with cancer since her 20s on 'Three's Company'

Actor Suzanne Somers has died at the age of 76 after being diagnosed with breast cancer more than two decades ago, which ultimately was her cause of death. Somers was best known for her roles in the hit sitcoms “Three’s Company” and “Step by Step,” and later in life for her health and fitness business ventures. Somers died “peacefully at home” surrounded by her family on Oct.

The actor went public with her diagnosis in a 2001 interview on Larry King Live. Somers told King that doctors found the cancer after a routine mammogram in April 2000 and that she had been receiving treatment for a year at the time. The actor initially underwent a lumpectomy and radiation to treat her breast cancer, but refused chemotherapy, the Associated Press reported. In 2007, Somers told the Los Angeles Times she was cancer-free and undergoing hormone treatments.
