Ryan O’Neal and Farrah Fawcett shared a tumultuous but iconic love story, spanning three decades until Fawcett’s passing in 2009. Despite never marrying, their bond was evident in O’Neal’s Malibu home, where a portrait of Fawcett hung above his bed until his death in 2023.

O’Neal spent his later years at his stunning Malibu residence with his dogs, Mozart and Raven, enjoying serene walks on the beach. His home featured panoramic ocean views and elegant decor, including the large painting of Fawcett, a tribute to their enduring love.

Their relationship was not without its challenges. “We fight, but my opinion is valid,” Fawcett once remarked. Yet, they stood by each other through illnesses—O’Neal’s leukemia and Fawcett’s cancer, which she ultimately succumbed to in 2009.

In his final days, O’Neal was surrounded by family and passed away peacefully. His son Patrick shared, “My dad passed away peacefully today, with his loving team by his side.” Despite his passing, O’Neal’s Malibu home remains a testament to a life of love and resilience.
