Her husband, John Easterling, confirmed she died peacefully at her ranch in Southern California Monday morning, surrounded by family and friends.

Although Newton-John battled breast cancer for more than 30 years, a specific cause of death was not given.

A source close to Newton-John reportedly told TMZ, “After a 30-year cancer journey, she lost her battle to metastatic breast cancer.”

Her huge break came in 1978, when she starred opposite John Travolta in ‘Grease’ as Sandy.

Olivia Newton-John was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992, but it went into remission only to return in 2013. It went back into remission but surfaced again in 2017.
