Jennifer Love Hewitt's mother Patricia dies at 67

"The Client List" star Jennifer Love Hewitt was in Monte Carlo on Tuesday for the Monte Carlo Television Festival when her mother, 67-year-old Patricia Hewitt, lost her battle with cancer.

"Her family mourns her loss," says Hewitt's rep. "She was an angel to all who knew her and they are grateful she is now in a better place. They ask for privacy at this difficult time. No further details are being provided."

Hewitt, who kept details of her mother's illness private from the media, immediately flew back from Monaco, where she was promoting her Lifetime series.

Patricia is also survived by Hewitt's brother, Dr. Todd Hewitt.
