Actress Ann B Davis, most famous for her role as Alice in The Brady Bunch has died aged 88.
TMZ reports that the actress fell in her bathroom on Saturday hitting her head and suffering a subdural hematoma. She never regained consciousness.
The news of her death was confirmed by her close friend Bishop William Frey.
Her death has come as a “total shock” to those close to her.
Ann was part of the hugely successful Brady Bunch series, playing Alice the house keeper between 1969 to 1974.
She also starred in several Brady Bunch TV movies and two Brady Bunch spin-off television series.
Ann had previously spoken of her love for the role telling.
“I made up a background story,” she told the Archive of American Television in 2004.
“I did have a twin sister, so I used that as a basis. I cared very much about this family. It was my family. It was close to my family as Alice would ever get. I would have died for any single one of them at any point.
“You know, they wrote me such gorgeous things to do, as the intermediary between the kids and the adults, and between the boys and the girls. And they gave me funny things to do.”
