Tova Borgnine's husband, Oscar-winning actor Ernest Borgnine, was by her side throughout much of her business success. They met in 1971 and married two years later. Although they had both been married multiple times before, their love turned out to be an enduring one, lasting until Ernest passed away in 2012 (per the New York Post). Tova even wrote a book in 1997 called "Being Married Happily Forever: 22 Secrets, 12 Strategies, and 8 Compromises" (via The New York Times).
With her passing at the age of 80, Tova leaves behind her son, David Johnson, her stepson, Cristofer Borgnine, and two stepdaughters, Sharon and Nancee Borgnine. She also leaves behind six grandchildren. "Our hearts and lives will forever be filled with your sparkle that adorns our outfits, your skincare that makes us look flawless, and the Halo of scent that is our Signature," her company, Tova Beverly Hills, said in a statement. "Rest peacefully dearest Tova."
A celebration of life will be planned for a later date.
