'I was so comfortable with this person, with Lynn Shelton. And I'm not really that comfortable emotionally or otherwise, but I was able to exist in a state of self-acceptance because of her love for me,' said comedian, podcast host and actor Marc Maron.
Holding back tears, Maron expressed his love for the director.
Maron recalled how Shelton thought she was suffering from strep throat after her COVID-19 test results were negative. When her fever didn't go down, she made an appointment to get a blood test on Friday. The night before her appointment, Maron said, Shelton collapsed in the hallway on her way to the bathroom and couldn't move.
Over the course of the following day, Maron said medical professionals tried"everything they could" before taking Shelton off life support."I told her I loved her, touched her forehead, and I left.""So many people loved her," he added. "She was a very determined artist who just needed to put her expression out into the world in any way. Tremendous love for people, for her friends, for her son, Milo.
Maron then played his interview with Shelton for his podcast from August 2015. According to Maron, this conversation was the first time the couple met.
