But looks like it was time for Joan to start her next journey to the heavens, alone as she peacefully died, whilst surrounded by her family.

The family spokesperson released an official statement which stated, 

'I can confirm the sad news that Joan Lee passed away this morning quietly and surrounded by her family.'

The spokesperson also added, 

"The family ask that you please give them time to grieve and respect their privacy during this difficult time."

After her tragic passing, it brought an end to her 7-decades of marriage with Stan. Marvel paid tribute to Stan's wife and said, 

"We are so saddened to hear about the loss of Joan Lee. We lost a member of the Marvel family today and our thoughts and prayers go out to Stan and his daughter Joan in this difficult time."

Joan and Stan tied the knot on December 5th, 1947, after meeting accidentally on a blind date.

Stan was due to meet another model named, Betty but instead, he laid his eyes on Joan first and he decided that she is the one.

Children Between Them

They were the parents of their two daughtersJoan Celia, born 1950, and Jan Lee, born 1953. Both of them never had any children from their previous relationship.

Although, their second daughter, Jan, died after a mere three days from her birth. It was a devastating blow for the duo but they moved on.

This was the third marriage for Joan as she was previously married to two men. She married an English man but broke up soon after.

After moving to the United States, she married an American officer but that marriage didn't work either.

At this tough time, we hope Stan pulls through and we mourn the loss of the blessed soul, that is Joan.
