    Dunno about household name but she was quite famous - the actress Mischa Barton. She was in the programme The OC and there was lots of talk about her prettiness and clothes. The last I heard of her she was in a play in the Cork Opera House. :eek:

    She had thyroid cancer

    She also wants people to know that she "hasn't gone away" but has spent the last six months battling the illness, including a week in an isolation ward in the Blackrock Clinic when she was dosed with radioactive iodine.

    She was in Steel Magnolias last September but the show lost a huge amount of money and the production company is being wound up leaving me out of pocket.
