Actress Dawn Wells, who portrayed Mary Ann on the classic sitcom “Gilligan’s Island,” died Wednesday at age 82, according to her publicist.
Wells died due to complications of COVID-19, publicist Harlan Boll said in a Facebook post announcing her death.
Wells was one of the last surviving cast members of the show that featured three women and four men stranded on a desert island following the wreck of their ship, the S.S. Minnow.
