Diane Ladd's Husband Robert Charles Hunter Died 3 Months Before Her Death

Diane Ladd’s death came three months after the passing of husband Robert Charles Hunter. Hunter’s family announced to The Hollywood Reporter in August that the former CEO of PepsiCo Food Systems died in Fort Worth, Texas, while visiting his children. He was 77 and survived by Ladd, stepdaughter Laura Dern and his children, Brandon, Amy and Emily. While honoring Hunter’s life, his family noted that he wrote the 2008 novel Curious Journey: Origins and 2011’s Curious Journey: Energy, which “tapped into his intellect and curiosity about the world.” “Robert always loved Texas,” the statement read.
