In a somber turn of events, the world bids farewell to a true television legend as Bob Barker, the charismatic host of The Price Is Right, peacefully passed away at the age of 99.

Barker’s departure, attributed to natural causes, has evoked heartfelt responses from his closest companions and admirers.

Among those sharing their sentiments is Nancy Burnet, Barker’s devoted long-term companion.

In an emotional statement released to the media, Burnet commemorated their decades-long partnership that went beyond the realm of entertainment.

“The collaborative efforts Barker and I embarked upon were pioneering in shedding light on the mistreatment of animals within the entertainment sector,” Burnet reflected. “Our joint commitment to alleviating the suffering of abused animals, both domestically and globally, stands as a testament to the profound bond we shared over these four remarkable decades. His absence will undoubtedly be deeply felt.”

Burnet, who assumed the crucial role of overseeing Barker’s well-being, played an instrumental role in ensuring the vitality of the TV icon for years.

Notably, she also serves as the co-executor of Barker’s estate, a testament to the profound trust and partnership they forged over the years.
