US actress Farrah Fawcett has been hospitalised in Los Angeles after a fresh setback in her three-year fight against cancer, it has been reported.
Fawcett, 62, was hospitalised on Thursday, People magazine reported on its website, three years after first being diagnosed with cancer in 2006. The actress, best known for her recurring role in hit 1970s television show Charlie's Angels had undergone aggressive chemotherapy in the past and had seen the cancer go into remission before returning in May 2007.
