Nancy Frangione, a 70-year-old US soap actor recognized for roles in All My Children and Another World, has passed away.

The artist, known for her portrayal of Cecile DePoulignac in Another World, died on August 18. The cause of her death is presently undisclosed.

Nancy first appeared on TV in ABC’s All My Children. She acted as Tara Martin for two years (1977-1979) and later in 1981, switched from ABC to NBC to take on the role of Cecile in Another World. Her TV accomplishments also encompass One Life to Live and CBS’s The Nanny.


In 2020, news surfaced that ex-All My Children stars Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos were apparently involved in creating a prime-time extension of the enduring soap opera, named Pine Valley. Nonetheless, the progression of the show was significantly hampered due to the Coronavirus outbreak.

Kelly and Mark, well-known for their roles as Haley and Mateo Santos in the series, were part of the drama, which broadcasted for more than four decades on ABC.

The American soap was located in the fictitious Midwestern town of Bay City and shadowed the lives of the inhabitants through their experiences of love, loss and victories. It was on air from 1964-1999, eventually being canceled due to inadequate viewership.

Nancy and her co-star Christopher Rich were wedded from 1982-1996 and have a daughter together named Mariel.
