This new thread is for death announcements that prove false (real people, not fictional characters; sorry X-men fans).
In either 2019 or 2020 Julie Strain, who is suffering from dementia was falsely reported dead.
But my main reason for starting this thread is, contrary to my now deleted post from earlier today, Tanya Roberts' rep apparently jumped the gun in reporting her death. She apparently did collapse while walking her dogs and get hospitalized but remains among the living.

Sadly Roberts did since pass.

There is currently a death hoax going around about Bruce Willis. However, while ill, he is still among the living.

Another death hoax circulating on Facebook: Melissa Gilbert
And on Twitter, Jimmy Fallon (this one may have been a gag that took on a life of its own)
