The Oscar-winning icon’s passing has shaken Hollywood, but for her son, it’s personal—a loss that feels impossible to define.

What were Diane’s final words to her children, and how are they carrying her light forward? Read the full story of her final days before the moment slips away forever.

Duke, Diane Keaton’s son, who is mourning her, was spotted for the first time following his mother’s passing as he exited the late actress residence in LA on Sunday. Duke, who is 25 years old, wore black clothing while grieving the loss of the Hollywood actor who had adopted him as a baby. He discovered a distinctive method to honor the Oscar winner.

 Sporting two cross necklaces in a style that Diane made wellknown. She was famous for her quirky fashion sense, which often involved wearing multiple pieces of jewelry along with her signature hats. In 2001, Diane, then aged 55, adopted the LA native. She also adopted her daughter, Dexter, who was 29 at the time.

 In 1996, when she was 50, Katon, born told People in 2007, “They have no interest in what I do, which I think is very healthy. We lead a life that is relatively normal. Well, kind of normal. The unconventional Oscar-winning actress, who is said to have left behind a fortune of $100 million, never married despite her passionate affairs with co-stars Jack Nicholson, Warren Batty, Alpuchccino, and Woody Allen.

 Diane explained to interview in 2021. It goes back to my mother because most everything does for me. She was a mother of four and I was her first child. I noticed the extent of her sacrifices. I noted seeing her achieve that crowning glory and become Mrs. Highland Park. Subsequently, we relocated to Santa Anna and that concluded everything.

 It was no longer possible to try things out. It seems to me that she opted for family instead of pursuing her dreams. She was an amazing mother, but I believe she is the reason I never got married. I wish to retain my independence. As an aside, no one has proposed to me before, so that could be a valid response.

 That should have been my starting point, and I should have left it at that. On Sunday, Sarah Pollson was photographed visiting Katon’s 5-bedroom dream home in Sullivan Canyon, Los Angeles, which is valued at $29 million, to pay her respects. There were also photos taken of Ben Affleck’s black SUV arriving at the upscale estate on Sunday.

 As reported by TMZ, the author of Fashion First was accompanied by someone when she was transported via ambulance to a nearby hospital around 8:08 a.m. on Saturday morning following a 911 call received by the LAFD that indicated there was a person down at her home. Dian’s high-profile colleagues including Leonardo DiCaprio, Jane Fonda, Reese Witherspoon, Sarah Jessica Parker, Goldie Horn, Kate Hudson, Viola Davis, B.

 Midler, Francis Ford Copala, and Rita Wilson sent in their condolences. A couple of weeks back, I saw her and she looked very thin. She had lost so much weight. Carol Bayer Sager, who penned Katon’s debut single, First Christmas, told People on Sunday her house had sustained internal damage, necessitating a thorough cleaning of everything.

 Thus, she had to head to Palm Springs. She spent some time down there, and upon her return, I was somewhat stunned by the amount of weight she had lost. In her last Instagram post shared on April 11th to commemorate National Pet Day, the real estate flipper beamed beside her cherished golden retriever, Reggie. However, Diane had not been seen publicly since April 2024 when she dressed to the nines for a dinner at Mr.

Chow in Beverly Hills alongside Alan  an event hosted by Tom Brown. Katon’s last role on screen was as Nora in Castile Landon’s 2024 comedy Summer Camp alongside Kathy Bates and Alfred Woodard. The film was met with negative reviews and performed poorly at the box office, grossing only $2.5 million. The two-time Golden Globe winner rose to fame as Michael Corleó’s second wife, K.

Adams, in The Godfather Trilogy, 1972 to 1990, and later appeared in eight Woody Allen films, including Annie Hall, 1977. Diane delivered a memorable performance as the neurotic Annie Mack Dugen parody in Hugh Wilson’s 1996 divorce comedy The First Wives Club, which earned 181 million worldwide.

 Katon worked together with writer director Nancy Meyers on films such as Baby Boom 1987, The Father of the Bride Trilogy, 1991 to 2020, and Something’s Got to Give 2003. In 2007, the wine maker of Katon Red received a career tribute at film at Lincoln Center. And in 2017, she earned the AFI Life Achievement Award.
