Ryan O’Neal Wants to Marry Dying Farrah Fawcett

Ryan O’Neal gave an update on Farrah Fawcett‘s status at the world premiere of her documentary, “Farrah’s Story,” in Los Angeles last night.

“[She's] wonderful, hopeful and proud of this that we helped her make it,” O’Neal told ET on the red carpet. Asked if she would be well enough to see the documentary herself when it airs on Friday night, O’Neal said yes.

The actor was also asked if he would wed Fawcett, after revealing recently that he loves the actress more than ever.

“I’d do that, I would do that. She’s still a little bit hesitant. I’m working though, I’m working.

You know she’s been married, I’ve been married. She’s said, ‘We have a good thing.’ But I said ‘you said that 30 years ago, shouldn’t there be a sea change?’ Maybe there is, you never know.”

Over the past week, O’Neal has spoken publicly after his decades-long relationship with Fawcett, most notably to Meredith Vieira on ‘Today. O’Neal had been optimistic five-to-six months ago. “She was athletic, healthy and hungry and beautiful,” O’Neal says. But then he knew things were wrong after a walk on the beach five to six months ago when Fawcett had to turn around because she wasn’t feeling well.

Fawcett’s documentary features the actress telling the camera directly that she’s relied on a combination of chemotherapy, radiation and prayer during her three year battle with cancer.

“I want to stay alive. So I say to God, because it is, after all, in His hands, ‘It is seriously time for a miracle,’ “says Fawcett. “Of all the things I’ve ever hoped for in my life, finding a doctor to surgically remove my anal cancer did not even make the top one million on my list.”

Meanwhile, TMZ reports exclusively that a man who claims to be responsible for the Farrah Fawcett documentary is suing Ryan O’Neal and others, claiming he was aced out of the project and O’Neal “physically threatened him.”
