LOS ANGELES - Cancer-stricken star Farrah Fawcett has been given her last rites and could be close to death, ABC News reported Thursday.

Sources close to the "Charlie's Angels" actress have told veteran television interviewer Barbara Walters that the 62-year-old actress may have only hours to live, ABC reported.

Walters made the disclosure in comments to the "Good Morning America" breakfast television show.

"I'm not sure if she's going to make it through the day," Walters was quoted as saying. "She's had her last rites."

Walters said close family and friends including long-time companion Ryan O'Neal were gathering at Fawcett's hospital bedside in Los Angeles.

"This is all he wants to do is be with her," Walters said of O'Neal.

Earlier this week it was revealed that O'Neal planned to marry Fawcett, who has been battling anal cancer for three years.

"I've asked her to marry me, again, and she's agreed," an emotional O'Neal told Walters in excerpts of an interview to be broadcast Friday.

Asked to describe Fawcett's current health condition, O'Neal replied: "She's fighting for her life."

O'Neal, 68, and Fawcett have been romantically involved off-and-on since 1982. The couple have a son together but have never married.

Last month O'Neal told People magazine Fawcett's cancer had spread to her liver and that her treatment had effectively ended.
