Reports say Farès suffered cardiac arrest at a private gym on April 11 and was taken to Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, where she later fell into a coma. She died on April 17. Authorities opened an investigation, with early indications suggesting no external involvement.

The Moroccan-born actress had previously spoken about serious health challenges, including treatment for an aneurysm and heart-related procedures.

Farès gained wider recognition in Mathieu Kassovitz’s The Crimson Rivers, followed by roles in War and Storm Warning. Television audiences knew her from Marseille, alongside Gérard Depardieu.

She had also been preparing a 2026 project involving directing and screenwriting, opening another creative chapter. Her daughters, Cylia and Shana Chasman, shared a tribute acknowledging both her public career and their private loss.

For viewers, her performances remain a lasting connection; for her family, the loss reaches far beyond the screen, into the everyday presence of the mother they knew and loved.
