Actress and model Dayle Haddon has tragically passed away, and another individual has been hospitalized following a carbon monoxide leak at a residence in Pennsylvania, according to authorities. Haddon, known for her work with brands such as Estée Lauder and L’Oréal, graced the covers of prominent magazines like Sports Illustrated and Vogue Paris during the 1970s.
Police responded to an emergency call at approximately 6:31 AM local time on Friday, discovering a 76-year-old man unconscious on the first floor of a detached building in Bucks County. Sadly, Haddon, identified as a 76-year-old woman, was found deceased in a second-floor bedroom. The man, identified as Walter J. Blucas, has been reported in critical condition at a hospital in New Jersey. He is tied to Haddon through familial connections, as his son is married to Haddon’s daughter.
Ownership records indicate that the home belongs to Ryan Haddon, Haddon’s daughter, and her husband, actor Marc Blucas. Initial investigations suggested that the carbon monoxide leak resulted from a faulty exhaust pipe in the building’s heating system. Emergency responders were also affected; two medics were hospitalized due to carbon monoxide exposure, and a police officer received treatment at the scene.
Dayle Haddon was born in Quebec, Canada, where she started her journey as a ballerina before transitioning to modeling and eventually acting. Her film credits include “The World’s Greatest Athlete” and “North Dallas Forty.”
This unfortunate incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of carbon monoxide, urging homeowners to ensure that their heating systems are well-maintained to prevent such tragedies in the future. As we remember the multifaceted talents of Dayle Haddon, it is a profound loss not only for her family but for the entertainment industry and her many fans.
