Olivia Hussey Eisley was known for her on-screen talent, but her most important role was being a mom. The late 73-year-old, who died on December 27, 2024, is survived by her three children, Alexander, Maximilian and India. Like her mom, India is a well-known actress, and she confirmed the news of her mother’s death by sharing an announcement that was originally posted to Olivia’s Instagram account.
“It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Olivia Hussey Eisley, who went peacefully at home surrounded by her loved ones on December 27th,” the Instagram caption read. “Olivia was a remarkable person whose warmth, wisdom, and pure kindness touched the lives of all who knew her. Born on April 17th, 1951 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Olivia lived a life full of passion, love, and dedication to the arts, spirituality, and kindness towards animals.”
The announcement also acknowledged Olivia’s family: “Olivia leaves behind a loving family — her children, Alex, Max, and India, her husband of 35 years David Glen Eisley, and grandson, Greyson, and a legacy of love that will forever be cherished in our hearts. As we grieve this immense loss, we also celebrate Olivia’s enduring impact on our lives and the industry.
