Leiomyosarcoma is a rare cancer that “most often starts in the smooth muscle tissue in the uterus, belly, or leg,” per the Mayo Clinic. “It starts as a growth of cells,” and “often grows quickly and can move to other parts of the body.”
Anderson, who was married to Burt Reynolds from 1988 until their divorce was finalized in 1994, passed away on Aug. 3 at the age of 79.
