Former US First Lady Rosalynn Carter, the wife of ex-President Jimmy Carter, has died at the age of 96, the BBC reports.
The Carter Center confirmed in a statement that she died peacefully with her family by her side.
On Friday, it was reported that she had entered a hospice care home in the state of Georgia, and was spending time with her 99-year-old husband, who has been in hospice care since February.
Mrs Carter was diagnosed with dementia in May.
The longest-married first couple marked their 77th wedding anniversary in July.
