She kept fans updated on her cancer treatment on social media. She was taken to the hospital in April after having breathing problems connected to her cancer treatment, TMZ reported.

Duane Chapman solicited prayers for his wife after her most recent hospitalization, and posted a photo of her iconic nails on Twitter.

The family's lawyer, Andrew Brettler, told USA Today that Chapman died in the early hours of Tuesday.

"Spoke with Duane. We are all heartbroken," he said.

A representative for the Chapmans told PEOPLE: "Beth died at 5:32 this morning, the same time she would wake up to go hiking Koko Head. The exact same time. She was surrounded by family and Dog was there, holding her hand."
