In the last months of her life, Audrey Hepburn comforted her two sons with a dream. “She was sick in bed but talked about taking us all to Australia, because she had heard it was very beautiful,” her youngest, Luca Dotti, recalls to Closer. “That dream was what kept us all going.”
Audrey retreated to La Paisible, her rural farmhouse in Switzerland, in the winter of 1992 after being diagnosed with an incurable cancer. “I remember the important things that she left us with,” her elder son, Sean Ferrer, tells Closer. “And the conversations that we had in the last few weeks.”
A few months earlier, Audrey and her love, Robert Wolders, whom she called Robbie, had undertaken a grueling tour of war-torn Somalia on behalf of UNICEF. Witnessing so much suffering weighed on Audrey, but she felt she was in a rare position to use her fame to bring aid to innocent children in dire need. “I want people to know that the largest part of humanity is suffering,” Audrey said.
