Farrah Fawcett
Sad news to report. Actress Farrah Fawcett is reportedly in grave condition just days after longtime love Ryan O'Neal announced that the couple were getting married.

Family and friends are asked to visit her to say their final goodbyes as she fights for her life. A priest was summoned to Farrah's bedside on Wednesday to read the devout Catholic her last rites.

"It was just related to me, that our Farrah just given last rites. She is not in any pain. For those who believe make contact with God now," her public relations agency posted on Twitter.

As Hollyscoop had previously reported Farrah was rushed to the hospital earlier this week and has been in critical condition.

According to several media outlets, Ryan is trying to get their son Redmond O'Neal, who is currently serving jail time, a temporary leave of absence so he can say his final goodbye to his mother.

Ryan was also hoping that she would recover enough for them to finally tie the knot before she passed. "I've asked her to marry me again, and she's agreed," he told Barbara Walters for a 20/20 interview scheduled to air tomorrow.

Fawcett has been fighting anal cancer since her diagnosis three years ago.

UPDATE: Extra has learned Farrah's 90-year-old father, James, is racing to his daughter's side, after being told about her grave condition.

I recently heard on our local television, here in New Zealand, of the news of Ms Fawcett and wished to send my thoughts to her family, friends, and loved ones. That no matter what happens or when for Ms Fawcett it will be a time of trying for all of you, I know. My Mother died of cancer last year and I know in my heart, through her faith, through the strength that Ms Fawcett has shown, that when ever it is her time, she will go forward to rest in Angels Arms. As my Mother stands strong in Heaven's Charming so shall she. God Bless her and you all.
