The deaths of actor Gene Hackman, aged 95, and his wife Betsy Arakawa, aged 65, have been investigated by New Mexico authorities. Hackman passed away from heart disease shortly after Arakawa died of hantavirus. An autopsy revealed Arakawa likely died first on February 11, with Hackman potentially unaware of her passing due to advanced Alzheimer’s disease. Their bodies were discovered a week later, raising questions about their secluded life and health care. Friends described their relationship as deeply loving and supportive, underscoring the tragedy of their simultaneous deaths.
