On April 17, 2026, the sad news of Nadia Farès’ death was announced. It was her daughters, Shana and Cylia, who announced her passing at the age of 57 in a statement sent to AFP. After being found unconscious in a pool in Paris, the actress was placed in an artificial coma. Unfortunately, she did not survive and passed away “following a heart incident”. Since her disappearance was announced, numerous celebrities have paid tribute to her, such as actors Jonathan Cohen, François Vincentelli, and Yannick Samot who were chosen to bear her coffin during her funeral at the Saint-Jean-de-Montmartre church in Paris on April 24, 2026.

The news of Nadia Farès’ death has crossed borders, as a famous American actor has recently reacted to this sad news. This actor is Mel Gibson, with whom the actress starred in the film “On the Line” by Romuald Boulanger in 2022. The two actors had formed very strong bonds. According to the Daily Mail on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, a source stated that the legend of American cinema had developed romantic feelings towards her sister. A love that was said to be one-sided.

“It is possible that he held on to her more than she held on to him”

“Mel has been admired by many women throughout his life, and there is no doubt that Nadia Farès is one of those for whom he feels the most love and respect, both for their shared work and their unwavering friendship,” said the source in the Daily Mail, before adding: “It is possible that he held on to her more than she held on to him, but they shared a wonderful bond, making her loss a tremendous one. It is heartbreaking that she left so young. He deeply cared for her.” Like many other celebrities who were close to Nadia Farès, Mel Gibson now has to grieve. This is also the case for her family, especially her two daughters whom she leaves behind.
