What an Icon! We will miss her. Whenever she would appear on TV I would always watch. RIP Suzanne.
Then why would not go with an icon on a cruise whenever she suggests you so?
an icon......you need help
To go to Hawaii?.. @@williamparker1085
She was always a like Joan Rivers, always came prepared for an interview, always had something worth saying in an interesting way.
Comparing her to Joan Rivers is very insulting to Suzanne's memory.
I completely disagree w the other commenter- comparing her to Joan is a huge compliment and very accurate! They were both incredible showman, both wicked smart, both trailblazers as women, and both funny as h*ll!! Comedy geniuses. Those are two women i admire and they are so missed!!
@@eovecka, Suzanne never spoke disparaging words about people, like Rivers.
@@mikieanthony777 I liked her... but she never spoke about anyone. Way too PC.
@@Mila_Breareyshe spoke about people. She said Joan knitted back stage. She explained the cast members reaction and why to her firing (they were lied to). She talked about Shirley McClaine being rude, she said Frank Sinatra was a little creepy when he’d say “hey baby”. Suzanne and Al didn’t think too highly of the guy that played Larry on Threes Company because he talked about Al getting Suzanne fired. Suzanne had grace, she also forgave her abusive father.
here's an example of turning lemons into lemonade. Her life was full of injustice, tragedy, and she reinvented herself. She has so much wisdom that we have not really tapped into. I just can't believe she's gone.
Oh boy--another genius vaccine-denier.
@@poncho___88exactly right. It killed her immunity and brought her cancer back. And i heard her on a live IG talking about how she got it bc she attended a celebrity dinner that was mandatory everyone had it and at the time i was SHOCKED to hear she got it when she doesn’t believe in western medicine. They got her w the cov id propaganda and it cost her many years of her life. Makes me so sad 😢
@@poncho___88 you think so?
@@danmichel1998 You bet. No jab.
So true! A testament of human potential
Suzanne mentions here living to 110. I really wish she would have! She seemed like such a genuine spirit that loved and got it back tenfold. She will be missed by many.
My late father met her in (I think) the Bahamas in 1972, when she expressed her concern about what to do having a boyfriend on each coast. I will still think of that when I remember her, but she grew so much from that young woman.
She had her husband by her side for 40 something years and 55 altogether.
She’s improved the lives of others. She gave the gift of joy, love and helpful wisdom. Miss her!
But not Janets lol, she didn't improve the life of Janet aka Joyce Dewitt
Yes they were upset. Can’t blame them either. Seems like the approach to negotiating could have been vastly improved by apprising her co-stars of her plan so they were not blind-sighted nor manipulated by the producers. Even better if all three joined as a team, a David Swimmer of Friends move. I wish Suzanne had succeeded to some amount of a raise. Would have been better for other woman stars of the decade who were also undervalued to some extent. I’m not saying Don Ritter was not worthy of higher pay to some degree because he already had certain comedy talents and notoriety. The producers decision caused much unhappiness all around, except for themselves.
John did almost all the physical comedy and carried the girls. Only the ropers could match his talent. That being said Suzanne tried to short Joyce by going it alone.
If you think I'm being unfair then watch the 40th reunion, Suzanne wasn't there and nobody even mentioned her.
Yes good points. I agree that going solo was a mistake, business wise and emotionally as well. It left a negative pall. We all make mistakes in life. Overall I do find her uplifting.
She was stunning right til the end of her life, amazing. ♥
Larry and Suzanne RIP.
Larry King died from sepsis.
Larry probably isn't RIP because he denied Jesus Christ his whole life. But only God knew his heart. Maybe he accepted Jesus on his death bed. Many do.
@@RA82828 I SAID only God knew his heart. He was judged already by every word he spoke while here.
This was a good woman. It moved me when they both talked about passing on
Agreed. She did sooo much for women when she refused to ever bring back Chrissy Snow. Chrissy deserved at least a decent raise....at LEAST...a travesty!
I used to be kinda jealous of her but now she seems relatable
@@feckless7989I agree
as it did for me
A very wise woman. More than wise actually, she was also intelligent. She is a role model for women and I’m going to miss her. May she Rest in Eternal Peace.
Thanks for posting. Suzanne really was a beautiful soul, a shining beacon. I miss both these two.
I admire her for not signing a new contract. She deserved to get paid the same as any man back then. Good for her to stand her ground. They were just mad because they couldn’t finish threes company and make more money. Shame on them for being mad at her all those years. She has a right to choose her path. She was a courageous woman with everything in her life. RIP Larry and Suzanne ❤️
Suzanne Somers was treated unfairly by the producers of Three's Company.
She was screwing over the other cast members. It was all about her.
The network was freezing and cutting at the time. How could they justify giving her a raise and not joyce or other more experienced cast members.
If you think I'm judging her to harshly , then go and watch the 40th Reunion from 2017.
Suzanne was a no show and nobody talks about her.
They are mostly paying tribute to John and the others who have passed away.
I miss Larry immensely. Like Suzanne said the best of the best!
I’m glad Suzanne never gave up on anything. She may have pressed her luck on 3s Co but it didn’t keep her down. Smart lady. RIP.
Awww...I wish she made it to 110 like she said in this interview! xo
A bright force of life died when Susan took her last breath....
Suzanne😊
Suzanne Somers was naturally beautiful and I never heard of her or anyone saying she ever had a face lift. Even sick, she was beautiful.
Yep I saw that, I think it’s awesome she didn’t get a facelift especially being in acting business. That machine is sort of like a isometric for the muscles underneath the face, I would love to get one of those, I do the facial exercises from a book I got probably about 20 years ago, you can work just about every muscle on your face and it really works. it keeps your skin nice and tight. She will be so missed.😔
@@sheiladavid9131 Yes Indeed, but one thing that keeps me smiling when I think of her is that her body is BRAND NEW and there is no breast cancer to ever fight again. I think about that when I think about my dear sweet mother. She died of colon cancer. I know she's not suffering now. She's BRAND NEW too!!!!
Very sad that she didn't make it to 110 yrs. like she said she wanted. I still watch Three's Company and enjoy it every bit as much as I did when I was a kid in the 70's.
Aw miss them both
I miss her. been following since 80s. hope her books extend lives.
Like her own?
Suzanne was a template for life. Well done.
I STILL Can’t Believe This Beautiful Suzanne Marie Mahoney Somers Is No Longer With Us😢
We are sending lots of prayers going on for her and Her Family Rip Suzanne Somers we are going to miss u but u will not forgetting
R.I.P. Suzanne Somers ,
Absolutely Genuine !!!
Thankfully she and Joyce reconciled 10 years or so before Suzanne died. She had a good life - not without its problems, but no life is ever perfect, and most have troughs amidst the peaks. Suzanne definitely has her permanent place in Hollywood!
Suzanne Somers only reconciled with Joyce DeWitt so she can get high ratings for her short-lived talk show.
Her incredible book, "Knock Out" was pivotal to me in my own BC treatment.... An amazing, brilliant woman~*
I don't need to watch. The only problem that she had with Joyce is that Joyce would not stand with her for the unfair treatment that they received as woman. Suzanne knew her worth. Joyce just wanted to work. She was right most of us watched to see her. She loved Joyce and John as people. They did not make the rules. She will be missed but never forgotten. Rest Well.
I've been living in denial, after learning about the Horrifically Tragic loss of Suzanne Somers. Historically, aside from her terrific acting and singing career, Suzanne has revolutionized the way we think about all the medical BS that's been shoved down our throats, for more than a half-century. God Bless Suzanne and all of her family. May she Rest In Peace. ❤
😪🙏💗
I was blindsided by her death as well 😢
a Brillant beautiful giving rock has been thrown in the pond and the sinking will have a ripple effect what a gem.
❤It's a Joy being your Friend Larry & 🎉Suzanne ❤We will miss You Both. I Think 🤔 we should have choices. 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
RIP Suzanne Somers (1946-2023)😢
I miss these Larry King interviews.
Larry King was always pretty respectful to women...I think because he loved his wife
Which one? He had like 8 of them.
she was a wonderful comedienne and very underrated as a performer in my opinion. For someone who didn't start out to be an actor she conquered that arena and then moved on to other even more interesting arenas. The sad part of this interview is that of course she didn't live to be 110. Probably few of us will, with or without vitamins and supplements. I think the fall she suffered in 2020 didn't help her much to survive the breast cancer that came back.
Just goes to show that when your time is up, it is up, no matter how much supplements you take. Maybe she should have been paying more attention to the eternal spirit, and feeding it on the WORD, The Lord Jesus Christ. Maybe she was, who knows, she never talked about it that I know of. RIP Suzanne, you were a bright light.
How do you know she didn't ? Don't assume and judge.
It's too bad that she never got a rail, shouldn't have used stairs after so many falls. She should have used an elevator. She was very intelligent and her books show it. I think she made $50 million a year on her products.
Right, but 76, almost 77 isn't bad, considering how her breast cancer bothered her off and on for 20 yrs.
@@RebeccaKhan-fx7jfyes and look at her, how young she looked at 65 especially considering all she'd been through. She still looked great at 76.
What a trailblazer!!!!!🙏🙏🙏
Love you both, Larry King and Suzanne Somers. Helped me a lot as a young woman when she wrote her book "Keeping Secrets". The World has lost an icon and a very bright light. What a courageous, loving, funny, smart, intelligent and beautiful woman. My heart goes out to her family and loved ones at this tender time. Thank You for uploading this interview here.
❤❤😢Rest In Peace
I MISS THEM BOTH!
Wow, she always looks great. Can’t believe how open and honest she is. Shares many details about her life to include relationships. I didn’t know about the riff with John Ritter and company. Loved that show
I admire her determination and strength going against all odds and survived 23 years...I wonder IF GOING A MONTH to treat her condition, advanced forward the cancer cells, 😢.
She took the jab
@@RebeccaKhan-fx7jf so sad 😞
God rest her soul🙏
She was smart and beautiful. A little over the top with the vitamins and the health stuff… that said, she has a few points that are worth noting and a few that aren’t.
If only you could've lasted to 110 Suzanne. We'll never know had she taken the chemo would she have lived longer. God Bless, you will be missed.
Quality of life is more important!
@@millioncharms3656 I agree 100% and many have a great quality of life after chemo, but in the end you have to respect her wishes may she soar with the Angels
The clot shot gave her turbo cancer
I greatly miss Larry King. Suzanne Somers was simply terrific.
Michele Carey , Celeste Yarnell and now Suzanne Somers . All those favorite beautiful ladies came to the snd of their lives in their mid 70s . it ain't fair !
Suzanne looks so beautiful n can not believe she's gone 😢 Rip Suzanne 😢💔🙏✝️
Taken too soon😢RIP. From Rosie O from Devon England 💔🇬🇧
She was always lovely and iconic.
Suzanne talking about the FDA and big pharma corruption waaaaaay before COVID.
She still took the jab
She was pure class, beauty and smarts
she was so intelligent!
Loved her. She actually looked better at the end of her life than she did during Three's Company. Also a great cook. I have her cookbook Sexy Forever Recipe Bible and had no idea she was such a good cook. It seems she was ready to move on. Will miss her.
Rip to them both !!
a 2017 meta-analysis published in the journal "The Lancet Oncology" examined the effectiveness of adjuvant chemotherapy (chemotherapy given after surgery) for early-stage breast cancer. The analysis included data from over 100,000 patients and found that adjuvant chemotherapy reduced the risk of breast cancer recurrence by 38% and the risk of death from breast cancer by 30%.
R.i.p. Suzanne and Larry. 6:05 she was 65 here? she looks amazing, so fit. 6:15 she says she's on "full hormone replacement replacement". Did she do hormone therapy from menopause to the remainder of her life?
What a goddess!
My favorite part of the interview was hearing she and DeWitt patched up. That was heartwarming.
Suzanne lives like I do, for the most part. Eating organic and natural, cooking without microwaves, preparing all your meals from simple natural ingredients. Then adding fitness and the work it takes to be fit. And finally making great decisions in life that are not destructive to mind/body/love/truth/energy. With this I stay mentally active in my work as a business owner, and my commitment to the arts, in my case, music. I think people think this takes most your time, it does not....IF....your recreational time is clean and pure. Instead of amusement as entertainment, mine is...."muse". Hiking, kayaking, bicycling on and off road, exploring the wilderness around me; I choose this instead of restaurants, movie theaters, TV, and the entire business of amusement. Amusement is having other entertain you, MUSE, is entertaining yourself with rich rewarding creative pursuits. So, in the time you take to go to a restaurant,, or drive to fast food for take out, I have, in the same time prepared a highly nutritious meal. In the same time you may spend sitting on the couch watching 2 football games, I have ridden my bike up into the mountains for 80 miles and returned home.
I live what I term as "the Pure LIfestyle". No addictions, no medications, no drugs, no over the counter drugs, no alcohol, tobacco, coffee. High fitness levels and the detoxification high intensity workouts provide. Mind challenges in: technology, composing music, performing music, photography, videography, lighting, animation, computer coding, computer repair, sound design, audio engineering....and more. Activity, both mind and body fueled by the rocket fuel of natural organic prepared myself. At 66 years old today, it seems to be working.
Love Suzanne ❤ Heroine forever. Cooking all her fodd🍋🫒🧄
John Ritter was not making 10 times what Suzanne made. She was comparing herself to Alan Alda, Larry Hagman, and Carroll O’Connor. That said, she and John and Joyce Dewitt should have banded together and gotten a piece of the syndication money. They deserved it. But Suzanne was negotiating after the season began production, as opposed to negotiating during hiatus, which is the standard. She disrupted the production by doing sick-outs, and put stress on her colleagues because they had to learn two scripts: one with Chrissy and one without. And she managed to alienate her colleagues.
BRILLIANT IRREPLACEABLE WOMAN.

Suzy....💕💖💕💕💖💕💖💕💖💕💖...Suzy
Suzanne has always been the most beautiful woman alive!
Wow, I didn't know she died! I am sooooo sad. But I'm happy she found true love 💌
You need to get out more and look around.
@@StrongDamonnot really.
She had had a lot of plastic surgery here. It wasn’t just aging.
@@tajmulhall Practically, everyone in Hollywood has had plastic surgery.
😍🤩
Dead Larry was kind enough to post this. How timely👍
Joyce DeWitt is equally as beautiful as Suzanne Somers. I understand the importance of women being paid equally to men, it's only right. However, in my opinion, on Three's Company John Ritter had been acting for quite some time in various projects. Joyce DeWitt and Suzanne Somers were newbies in the business. It is only natural to have to work your way up in any business with experience and developed skills.
They should been paid equally because all of them contributed to the success of the show.
Suzey..💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞.suzey.
Wow she is 66 years old here
I do love her spiritual wisdom, although I feel conflicted that she made it with a married man on the first date. Hurtful for the wife (or any jilted spouse)
Her face was so puffy here! I didn’t think it looked like her.
Too much Botox.
That would be filler that makes the face so puffy and it didn't look like her at all either@@ziziscorsese9475
Bless Big Al for saving her from the snares of Helly-Wood. Al you are an 😇
I require protein. My mother also thought Vegans never looked healthy
How do you think there is no protein in a vegan diet? And tofu is only one option. The ones who look unhealthy could be doing it wrong.
That's what YOU think. And there is vegan protein anyhow.
@@jlbaker2000 Yes, some diets do have some protein but Vegan diet can lack other nutrients like Iron among other nutrients. I agree with Suzanne here though.Many Vegans can look a little pale and wiped out.
@@lorraineb.4698totally not factual. Woody Harrelson would tell you. A vegan diet is the ONLY true healthy way to eat.
Joyce DeWitt let go of a lot of memories to be able to meet with Suzanne and to forgive and let the past stay in the past. I'm surprised to hear Suzanne say they stay in contact via email, but they are such different people that there would never be a close relationship. It just sounds a bit cold. What is there about Joyce DeWitt that is so different? In that reunion piece, Suzanne said she respected Joyce, but she didn't respect Joyce enough to wait for Joyce to go with her in asking for more money. With John Ritter no longer alive, and now Suzanne Somers is gone, there's Joyce DeWitt who is sad over the loss of both stars.
She was making 30k an episode on three's company. In today's 2024 $ that would be at least 120k an episode or two million per year.
AbC was making her a millionaire.
So what does Hamel do? He went in and demanded 150k/ episode.
ABC laughed.
ABC wanted to keep Suzanne, but she and Hamel were a package deal; so they fired her.
Her sun is a Libra not a Scorpio though, maybe her moon is a Scorpio
She said I got a Scorpio out loud meaning Larry not herself
I think Larry King had a crush on her
Who would'nt?
Larry had a crush on all women. He had like 8 wives.
@@joeybaseball7352 He married a coat rack and did not know for six months.
200 pills a day is overkill (no shit, Sherlock 🤣). I don't believe in supplements. I believe in food as my medicine. For example, reservatrol is in grapes. 🍇
I agree. a few vitamins and supplements a day is ok, but 200 unnecessary.
@@tnt01 I think Suzanne might have been fear-based about health. Someone said she and her hubby got the quacksine 🦆. I haven't been able to verify it but I wouldn't be surprised.
Agree. Having a balanced diet should be enough to exist a healthy life style. 👍RIP. From Rosie O from Devon England 🇬🇧
Larry King are you serious! Vegans healthy!...... 😂😂.
RIP.... SUZANNE ❤️
Love how she encourages Bill Clinton to eat a steak....she eats steak and looks amazing! RIP Suzanne Somers, you will be missed.
Sadly she ended up decrepit ten years after this interview. She was so special. Sadly cancer got her in the end.
She took allll that crap then died of cancer anyway at 76 - younger than my mom (died at 80) who ate whatever she wanted. Sad. RIP, Suzanne.
Don't get mad at me but the health gurus die at 76 while my overweight smoking drinking Grandparents died at 92 and 98
Remember there were no chemical in food and environment, cannot compare oranges to strawberries. 😊
I'd rather die a rich 50, than a broke 90. I don't need an extra 40 years of being broke.
@@RA82828 you would choose being broke all your life and live to your 90s?
She might have had a quacksine.
@@poncho___88 How do you know????? 😳
She said she doesn't want to interview the top experts in the field and that would be people that work "in the natural"....
She works in a field that she really has little knowledge in.....
She should only lean towards real true specialists and those are "Master Holistic Healers"....
Therefore I am losing respect for what she says
And unfortunately she died from cancer so she didn't have the full knowledge to keep herself alive..... Of course I love her spirit her kindness her fun little shows on UA-cam/ but knowing that she doesn't really "get it" makes me deeply sad
She took 230 vitamins a day, and still died of cancer.
I believe the cancer came before the vitamins
@@poncho___88 Just stop.
She died because it was her time to go.
Did she really take the jab? Where is this info?
The ironic thing is she refused chemo and died, after all that preaching about alternative treatments.
Probably poke? Not diet ? Lol
She beat cancer for over 20 years dumbo
With all her medical quackery, she made it till the ripe old age of 76. She should've just enjoyed herself and not wasted her time with all that alternative medicine mumbo jumbo.
All that health nut stuff didn't help her much, eh? Cancer didn't care about her healthy lifestyle.
She praised steak! Dead flesh is acidic.
All 3 of you are brain dead
She overcame many things. But, should have avoided the stairs and the jab.
@@RebeccaKhan-fx7jf Don't be flippant about this. Stairs are obviously inevitable and aren't a problem if you don't get a bioweapon injected.
Yup, sadly…😔
I forgive you for partying with the Creep Billy! Love Suzanne, hated Bill 💩
Why does she look u recognizable?
She had many bouts of cancer. She ultimately lost her battle. She was extremely rich though.
Her face is full of botox
No vegan for me. I like FAT. We are fat eaters. You go back in your families histories. My people came from Scandinavia. They ate fish, but they ate fat from beef and pork. Not pure fat, but they ingested fat laden dairy, pork, they used lard up until the 50s. I know some groups STILL use lard. I think my Dad was worse off eating hydrolyzed vegetable oils. I think may Dad would have been better off staying on pork fat lard and tallow. They used these fats in their cooking and food preparation. Not all Scandies lived close to the fisheries. They ate what was available to them. I remember talking to my old Norsk friend from North Dakota. He said, during the depression they ate lard like butter on their bread. Many people agree, if it wasn't for animal fats we would have never made it through the Depression and WW2. By the way, my old Norsk friend lived til 87 and he smoked cigs all of his life. So, that lard never hurt him. Of course people worked their butts off. I remember my Dad telling me that when they were working in the field, they would eat 5-6 times a day. Small meals, but they burned a lot of calories. He said his sisters used to fight over who got to take the food out to the men working in the fields.
Meat isn't inherently bad. But when you pump livestock up with tons of hormones to make them big and fat, and you eat it, then that's gonna make you big and fat. But he probably ate meat from big, strong, healthy cattle. So he was big, strong and healthy.
So you think hydrolyzed vegetable oils are the only types of fat out there? Very intellectually dishonest!
@@joeybaseball7352not necessarily
Meat isn't healthy. Consuming meat is a large contributor to colon cancer. If not for meds & surgeries MOST Carnist who consume burned animal flesh are NOT healthy.
Read the book Meatonomics.
MOST meat eaters who lived passed age 80 were raised on lots of veggies as a child. These days most meat eaters are consuming not only tons of hormones yet antibiotics too.
Most women who get breast cancer consumed a lot of dairy OR the genes of female family members who consumed dairy. Read The China Study. Humans only live longer with LESS or NO meat, dairy & eggs. Eggs are so NOT healthy. No surprise there's MORE cancers & heart disease in the USA. Fast Food America. NOT healthy people yet a high percentage of obesity & over weight. Little IF any exercise has a lot to do with it too.
That doesn't look like her...
She kept looking for the right diet but unfortunately never stumbled upon the blood type diet. I bet her breast cancer and her ultimate demise was not caused by meat but by an excessive consumption of dairy/milk and cheese
Who runs a UA-cam channel when the host is no longer living?
Good question. I'm guessing the company behind the show.
Whenever Suzanne Somers talks about Joyce Dewitt, she projects a distainful attitude. As much as I admire her drive and ambition, her attitude towards Dewitt and how she went about getting that raise by her no-shows confirms her self centered persona.
Somers was totally ignorant regarding about comsuming animal flesh. Most Carnist are.
I do miss Larry King. RIP to both.
I like them both.
Suzanne Somers always was a bit of a dietary kook!
She was a health nut.
VOTE TRUMP 2024// HEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Treasonist
😂😂😂😂😂
He's a criminal!!
And Pathological Liar.
If Trump wins again, he can run The White House from his jail cell.
She never says that she lost her case when she sued.
This conversation has not aged well when the woman talking about health died at 76.
true. A lot of health is based on the genetics you get when you come into life. From there, it's more or less up to nature as to what happens. People can take a million supplements and it most likely has no real effect other than psychologically. However, I do respect her on pushing back on chemo. It probably wouldn't have made any difference when she was first diagnosed with breast cancer and possibly would have made it worse. I liked that she did question things and stood up for herself.
You act like 76 is young.
In this video she’s a 13 year breast cancer survivor. God bless Suzanne Sommers.
Cancer can strike healthy people as well.
She fell down a huge flight of stairs in her home. Head, neck, hip pain & problems it stated. She wasn’t talking like she used to afterwards. But obviously she did something right. She got through many decades way after her original issues.
