BBC NEWS:  Farrah Fawcett, who has been battling cancer for almost three years, has been admitted to a Los Angeles hospital, according to reports. The 62-year-old Charlie’s Angels star has been in an unidentified hospital since Thursday, People magazine said. A spokesman for the actress has not yet commented on her condition. Diagnosed with anal cancer in September 2006, Fawcett declared herself cancer-free four months later, only to have the disease return in May 2007. She shared her experiences of battling the disease with footage she released to the media in 2008. Her big TV break came in 1976 when producer Aaron Spelling cast her in Charlie’s Angels as one of the crime-fighting heroines. Separately, Los Angeles police say the star’s 24-year-old son with actor Ryan O’Neal has been arrested on a drug charge just months after he and his father were charged with drug possession. Redmond O’Neal was arrested on suspicion of bringing drugs into a jail and is currently being held on $25,000 (£17,000) bail. He was previously arrested in September and charged with possession of methamphetamine while on probation for a previous drug conviction. MORE
