Background

Shelley Duvall, who survived the ex wielded by Jack Nicholson in Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, has peacefully passed away at 75.

Duvall passed in her sleep due to complications from diabetes at her home in Blanco, Texas.

“My dear, sweet, wonderful life partner and friend left us. Too much suffering lately, now she’s free. Fly away, beautiful Shelley,” said Dan Gilroy, her life partner since 1989.

Duvall most famously played Wendy Torrance in The Shining, and Olive Oyl in Popeye.
