Actor Ryan O’Neal, who was nominated for an Oscar for the tear-jerker “Love Story” and played opposite his precocious daughter Tatum in “Paper Moon,” has died.

Ryan O’Neal, the prolific actor who made headlines for his troubled relationship with Farrah Fawcett and his estrangement from his children died at the age of 82, according to celebrity news website TMZ.

Perhaps the most infamous celebrity death hoax attributed to Global Associated News was Jeff Goldblum, who was reported to have met his fate on the Kauri Cliffs on June 25, 2009, the same day Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett died.
