Alicia Witt faced multiple tragedies in 2021. Beginning in January 2022, the Hallmark star shared sad details about her personal life with fans online. A month earlier, in December 2021, both of her parents were found dead at home. The pair had died from the cold as the heat in their run down home had gone out, and they had neglected to address the issue. Questions arose surrounding their death, as it seemed avoidable considering their daughter was a well-known actor. Witt clarified why she was unable to help her parents in her lengthy Facebook post. “I hadn’t been allowed inside my parents’ home for well over a decade; every time i offered to have something repaired for them, they refused,” the actor wrote, while citing that her parents had mental wellness issues.
As if the sudden death of her parents were not enough, Witt revealed in an interview with People in August 2022 that she had been diagnosed with cancer the previous year. In fact, she had undergone chemotherapy when she appeared at Christmas Con in December 2021 — just before her parents passed — but had not informed the public. “It was very important to me to go through that journey privately until I was on the other side of it,” Witt said. According to an Instagram post, Witt completed chemo in March 2022.
