Natasha Richardson taken off life support

It is now being reported that the family of Natasha Richardson have taken her off of life support earlier this afternoon after a skiiing accident that left her brain dead. Richardson was surrounded by her husband Liam Neeson, mother Vanessa Redgrave, aunt Lynn Redgrave, and her two sons Michael and Daniel.

Natasha was flown to Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City so that she could be near family and friends. Word was that she was in serious condition, with TMZ denying those claims. Now that life support has been switched off, the consensus is that Natasha will not last through the night.
