Designing Women" star Dixie Carter, whose Southern charm and natural beauty won her a host of television roles, has died at age 70.

Carter died Saturday morning, according to publicist Steve Rohr, who represents Carter and her husband, actor Hal Holbrook. He declined to disclose the cause of death or where she died. Carter lived with Holbrook in the Los Angeles area.

"This has been a terrible blow to our family," Holbrook said in a written statement. "We would appreciate everyone understanding that this is a private family tragedy."

Always liked her........she had an attitude that you just couldn't help but appreciate.

Knew of her but not from D.W. She was a talented lady. And, comparatively speaking, still not that old.

So sad.

Here's the quintessential Julia Sugarbaker moment for me:

Oh, Brian....that was great!!! I just loved the way she was able to just take over the show with her fantastic way of saying her lines!! ....... You got the feeling that a lot of it was adlib, beautifully delivered.
