"What Harrison and everyone else may not know is that Carrie went to mom right after the book became such a big deal and said, 'You were right, I shouldn't have told that story.' For what it's worth, Harrison, she really did regret telling the story of that affair," Todd Fisher writes in the new book.Fisher died on December 27, 2016 and Reynolds, aged 84, passed away a day after her daughter's demise.Todd Fisher says their mother could not bear the thought of his sister being alone that she "willed herself" to die a day after."I want to be with Carrie," he recalls Reynolds as saying.
