Candice Bergen, 78, is in mourning following the death of her beloved husband, Marshall Rose.
The veteran actress's spouse was surrounded by loved ones when he died "peacefully" in the early hours of February 15 at home in New York, according to his online obituary.
The real estate developer and philanthropist passed from complications with Parkinson's disease "after many years of extraordinary strength and resilience". He was 88 years old.
"Marshall was a profoundly good man. Friends and colleagues looked to him as a mentor, and he consistently modeled a life worth emulating," his obituary continued.
"His effortless gravitas paired with his quick humor and genuine respect for all individuals made him a gifted and compelling leader. A dedicated father and grandfather, Marshall had high expectations for those around him.

"His wisdom, strength, and generosity of spirit will be remembered by the countless people whose lives he touched."

The couple were first set up three years after the 1995 death of Candice's first husband, Louis Malle.
The date wasn't a surprise to Marshall, who was "in on it" after 60 Minutes producer Don Hewitt and his wife Marilyn Berger played matchmakers.

In another 2015 interview, Candice admitted that she didn't like to spend too much time away from her husband and their relationship was a big factor when choosing her work projects.

Marshall is survived by Candice; his children Wendi and Andrew; his stepdaughter Chloe; and his grandchildren Alexander, Clio, Ell, Milo, Arthur, and Alice.
