Farrah Fawcett has plans to sue the National Enquirer over a front page story they ran in December.
Farrah is claiming the story has caused her emotional distress. The tabloid's article described Farrah's first ordeal with cancer and went into detail about her apparent 'death wish'. The story broke before Fawcett could inform all of her family and friends of her illness.
Her publicist, Craig Nevius, released a statement Friday saying, "While Farrah is prepared to continue the fight she began last fall, she is not prepared to allow the tabloids to continue to invade her privacy or use one confirmed truth as the foundation on which to build numerous fabricated articles.
"Stories and headlines such as the National Enquirer's December 18th cover claiming `Farrah Begs: Let Me Die” can only be regarded as knowingly false and purposefully malicious. Not only have these and other lies been hurtful to Farrah and her family but, as per her doctors, they have been potentially harmful to her recovery."
