On Sunday, Tanya's agent reported her death, saying he got the news from her "husband", Lance O'Brien..That turned out to not be true...

This story got really weird really quick! Tanya Roberts is actually still alive. Her longtime boyfriend got a call from doctors letting him know. The call actually came while he was doing an interview about Tanya's death.

Well, it turns out Lance isn't Tanya's husband, but her longtime boyfriend. And yesterday, he was being interviewed by "Inside Edition" about her death, when he got a call from the hospital telling him she was STILL ALIVE.

He told the person on the other end, quote, "Now, you are telling me she's alive? Oh thank the lord, thank God!" . . . and then he broke down.

But wait it gets even weirder!

After that, TMZ spoke with both Lance and Tanya's rep, whose name is Mike Pingel.

Lance told them that he went to the hospital Sunday after doctors called and told him Tanya was fading fast, and wasn't going to make it.

When he got there she opened her eyes and tried to grab him, then closed them again. He apparently ASSUMED she was dead, and left the hospital without speaking to medical staff.

Mike says he picked Lance up at the hospital, and Lance told him, quote, "She died in my arms."

In yet another interview, Lance said a hospital worker told him that Tanya opening her eyes was just a reflex, and that "for all intents and purposes she was gone."

He also said she's since been taken off life support, and there's no chance she's gonna make it.

Here is the report from Inside Edition:

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
