Police Reveal New Details on Gene Hackman and Wife’s passed away, Indicating They Had Been Deceased for a While

Legendary actor Gene Hackman, 95, and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, 63, were found dead in their Santa Fe home on Wednesday. Authorities have yet to determine the cause of death but do not suspect foul play. Hackman was discovered in a mudroom, while Arakawa was found in a bathroom near a space heater, with pills scattered nearby. Their daughter, Elizabeth, suspects carbon monoxide poisoning. A gas company is assisting with the investigation, and reports suggest the couple had been dead for some time, with their bodies partially mummified. Hackman, a two-time Oscar winner, starred in over 80 films, including “Bonnie and Clyde” and “The French Connection.” He retired from acting in 2004 to pursue novel writing. He and Arakawa, a retired pianist, had been married since 1991. The entertainment world mourns the loss of an iconic actor and his wife. RIP Gene Hackman and Betsy Arakawa.
