New York, Jul 1 (ANI): Late ‘Charlie’s Angels’ star Farrah Fawcett had reportedly reconnected with her ex-husband Lee Majors after 23-years of silence just months before she died.

According to USmagazine.com, Fawcett and 70-year-old Majors reconnected briefly over the phone, after she was diagnosed with anal cancer in 2006.

“He didn’t feel like he could reach out to her himself - it had just been too long but he still cared about her deeply,” the New York Daily News quoted a source as telling the magazine.

“He would send funny messages to her through friends, and she would do the same, and it was very sweet,” the source said.

This past February, in the midst of the battle for her life, Fawcett received a call from Majors on her birthday.

“They had a 40-minute phone conversation about her life and the cancer and it was such a lovely moment for the two of them. I guess it was a good conversation. They joked and they got a little bit emotional,” the source added. (ANI)
