'Dog The Bounty Hunter' Star Dead At 51

“Dog The Bounty Hunter Star” Beth Chapman has passed away at only 51 years of age. As Fox News reports:

Beth Chapman, wife of Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman, died Wednesday. She was 51.

Duane, 66, announced her passing on Twitter, writing, “It’s 5:32 in Hawaii, this is the time she would wake up to go hike Koko Head mountain. Only today, she hiked the stairway to heaven. We all love you, Beth. See you on the other side.”

In November 2017, Beth was diagnosed with stage 2 throat cancer. She underwent successful surgery, but doctors later told her the cancer had returned. She began chemotherapy in December 2018, but Duane told Us Weekly at the time that she wasn’t necessarily cooperating with her doctors and wanted to explore alternative therapies.

“Beth will not take anything the doctors want to give her. Even the doctor told me he doesn’t want her to have seizures if the pain is that bad, but she won’t do it,” he said. “She takes over-the-counter pain meds. She will not take anything prescription.”

The sad news broke the hearts of the many fans of the show.
