'I want to be with Carrie': Last words of Hollywood legend Debbie Reynolds, 84, who died of a suspected stroke, just one day after her daughter Carrie Fisher died of a heart attack

Carrie Fisher's mother Debbie Reynolds (above together in 2015) died on Wednesday - a day after the Star Wars actress 

Hollywood legend Debbie Reynolds died on Wednesday a day after the death of her daughter, telling family before a suspected stroke: 'I want to be with Carrie'.
The 84-year-old was rushed from her son Todd's Beverly Hills home at around 1pm after falling ill while planning her daughter's funeral. 
She died in hospital hours later. Todd Fisher revealed on Wednesday evening how his mother had been shattered with grief since his sister's death the previous day.
On the morning of her death, she told him: 'I miss her so much, I want to be with Carrie,' according to TMZ. 
Carrie Fisher, 60, died on Tuesday from complications which stemmed from a heart attack she suffered on Christmas Eve while flying to Los Angeles from London.
On Wednesday, Todd Fisher said he was 'heartbroken' by their back-to-back deaths. 'She's now with Carrie and we're all heartbroken,' he said. 
While Fisher had made no funeral provisions, Reynolds knew 'exactly' what she wanted, her son previously said. 
Speaking before her death, he told New York Daily News that his famous mother had already chosen out where she would be buried and that they owned a family plot. 
All of his sister's estate would be handed over to her only daughter, Billie Lourd, he said.  
At the time of their deaths, Reynolds and her daughter enjoyed a happy, close relationship after years of estrangement.
They did not speak for 10 years when Fisher was a young adult and battling drug addiction. She would later tell how she 'didn't want to be Debbie Reynolds daughter', and was haunted by the daunting legacy of her Hollywood legend parents.
Reynolds already boasted a dazzling film career by the time she gave birth to Fisher in 1956.
Most adored for her role in the 1952 classic Singin' In The Rain, she was among a prestigious crop of actresses who became known the world over for their beauty and on-camera charm.

George Michael has left three never-before-heard albums that are unlikely to ever be released, it is claimed.

They include Trojan Souls - which features the song shared yesterday by Michael's boyfriend, Fadi Fawaz - and White Light, which was set to be released after Michael performed the title track at the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics.

Another, said to be a dance album follow-up to 1990's Listen Without Prejudice Vol 1, was reportedly scrapped during a dispute with Sony.  
Yesterday Mr Fawaz, who discovered Michael dead in the bed of his home in Goring-On-Thames, Oxfordshire on Christmas Day, shared 'This Kind of Love' on Twitter. 
The song includes the  lyrics: 'Now everyone has to get over I know, but this empty house seems to get colder and colder.'
Fadi posted the link in a tweet which said simply: 'My Baby.'
