During a private ski lesson with an instructor, the Tony-winning actress fell on the beginner\u2019s trail at Station Mont Tremblant and hit her head.<\/p>\n<p>Though Natasha&#8217; initially thought nothing of her fall, she was unknowingly suffering a serious brain bleeding injury. Despite appearing fine, her condition continued to deteriorate over the next few days, ultimately leading to her death two days later on March 18.<\/p>\n<p>It was later revealed that she died from an epidural hematoma, and her death devastated fellow actors and longtime fans. Over the years, Liam has opened up about the loss of his late wife, including how he still tries to feel close to her.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Natasha and Liam&#8217;s kids are following in their acting footsteps.

The problem is there&#8217;s an artery that lies just under the bone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That artery, called the middle meningeal, if damaged, can cause heavy bleeding. Over time, the pressure from the bleeding compresses the brain and can lead to headaches, confusion, loss of consciousness and even death.<\/p>\n<p>If caught and treated in time, a person has a strong chance of surviving with no lasting effects. Natasha\u2019s injury, however, was left untreated for hours.<\/p>\n<p>After Natasha fell and hit her head, she was briefly examined by ski resort employees on the beginner&#8217;s slope she was practicing on and then by paramedics at a local clinic, according to ABC News.<\/p>\n<p>The actress didn&#8217;t wish for further medical attention and signed a release waiver, but when she returned to her hotel, her condition began worsening over the next few hours.<\/p>\n<h2>When did Natasha Richardson die?<\/h2>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/people.com\/thmb\/LiFJ-kkz6qmmknnqrGFKDLjPBjA=\/fit-in\/640x480\/natasha-richardson-death-white-countess-premiere-031225-28cfec31b835477e8867f8ab7dc12b70.jpg\" alt=\"Natasha Richardson during \" title=\"Natasha Richardson during \" \/><figcaption><i>Natasha Richardson during &#8220;The White Countess&#8221; premiere at The Paris Theatre in New York City.<br \/>Credit: J.
