'The Birds' Star Tippi Hedren Reportedly Has Dementia

“The Birds” actress Tippi Hedren was reportedly diagnosed with dementia. A representative for the actress reportedly confirmed her diagnosis, saying she "can't remember her career." After her movie career ended, she became an animal rights activist. She’s also the matriarch of a great acting dynasty. Her daughter, Melanie Griffith, starred in the 1988 film “Working Girl.” Her granddaughter, Dakota Johnson, just hosted “Saturday Night Live.”

I hope Dakota takes good care of her grandmother, she needs to be by her side right now 🙏🏻😢

Someone who talk rubbish about Alfred Hitchcock like she did must have dementia. Yea when she was young she was extremely beautiful and also talented. But it was really ignorant and disrespectful to talk like this about Hitchcock. Because no other Hitchcock actress ever said something like this. Experts even said that her story changed and didn't fit. But i still wish her the best.

Amazing classy lady! Always have been a fan

didn't even know she was still alive.

[rollingwheels]

why does everything have to tie in to wendy for Christ's sake?

[UpsNdownZZZ]

That's a shame but not so bad since she is already 94. My mom is turning 74 next month and has Alzheimer's.

[DelMinnesota]

Wow, I just found out she grew up in the same city I did, Edina Minnesota. Edina Highlands was my elementary school. So proud as she was one of my favorite actresses. I pray her dementia ceases.

Very upsetting about one of my favorite actresses.. she's so beautiful ❤️ and a great actress tbe birds Marnie. Well she had a great bunch of girls who love her and will take care of her. When we get old things happen to us. You must deal with it and take it day by day.
