SAD NEWS: Just Now in Santa Monica, California, USA —
The world of entertainment is mourning the loss of a beloved icon as Barry Gibb, the legendary Bee Gees frontman, was seen visibly heartbroken after receiving the devastating news that his longtime friend and colleague, June Lockhart (100), has passed away peacefully due to old age.
According to those close to Barry, he was “overcome with emotion” upon hearing the news and immediately made arrangements to visit her family in Santa Monica to offer his condolences in person.
Speaking through tears, Barry said softly, “The world has lost a woman of grace, kindness, and timeless spirit — a true legend whose light will never fade. June was one of a kind. She carried herself with dignity, warmth, and a heart that touched everyone she met.”
The two shared a long friendship that stretched back decades, often crossing paths at award ceremonies and charity events. Barry fondly recalled their conversations about music, family, and the importance of staying grounded amid fame. “June always had this calming energy,” he said. “Even in a room full of stars, she stood out — not because she tried to, but because her heart shined brighter than any spotlight.”
Friends say Barry was deeply reflective during his visit, looking through old photographs of June and reminiscing about the early days of Hollywood — a time when both artists were forging their legacies in their own worlds.
He later shared a quiet message with fans:
“When someone like June leaves this world, the air feels a little heavier… but heaven gains a light that will never dim.”
Known for her roles in “Lassie” and “Lost in Space,” June Lockhart’s remarkable career spanned over seven decades. Yet beyond her achievements on screen, those who knew her best say her greatest role was the one she played off-camera — as a mentor, a friend, and a woman of endless kindness.
As Barry Gibb left the Lockhart residence, witnesses say he paused for a moment outside, gazing at the sky before whispering a quiet goodbye.
“We’ll miss her laughter, her grace, her spirit,” he said. “But her light — her light will always be here.”
A legend of Hollywood, a heart full of humanity — June Lockhart’s memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
