It’s unclear if Lee was battling major health issues in her final years, but during her last week alive, she was suddenly hospitalized because she was battling complications from the flu.
On December 24, 2025, Lee’s family posted a note to her Instagram account asking the public for some time to themselves as they dealt with a “critical moment regarding Mickey.”
“We feel the love surrounding us, and we are incredibly thankful,” the statement read, in part. “Right now, our family needs quiet, space, and uninterrupted time to focus on her care and on one another. We respectfully ask that calls, texts, and messages pause for now. Your prayers mean more than words, and we will share updates when we are able. Thank you for honoring our need for privacy during this very difficult time.”
