Roberts s big acting break came in her mid-20s, when she was cast in the fifth and last season of

LOS ANGELES: Former Bond actress and “That ‘70s Show” star Tanya Roberts
(pic) has died from a urinary tract infection at a Los Angeles hospital, her publicist said Tuesday, a day after premature reports of her passing were retracted.
Roberts, 65, was best known for her role as geologist Stacey Sutton in the James Bond film “A View to a Kill,” after her early acting break on television’s “Charlie’s Angels.”
Roberts’ long-term partner Lance O’Brien had mistakenly announced her death to media late Sunday following a “miscommunication” with Cedars-Sinai hospital, publicist Mike Pingel said. Multiple media outlets published obituaries that had to be withdrawn.
