Debbie Reynolds -- who rose to stardom in "Singin' in the Rain" and quickly became a staple among Hollywood royalty -- died Wednesday as a result of a stroke, TMZ has learned ... just one day after her daughter Carrie Fisher passed away ... this according to her son Todd.

Debbie was rushed to a hospital shortly after 1 PM when someone at the Beverly Hills home of her son, Todd, called 911 to report a possible stroke. We're told Debbie and Todd were making funeral plans for Carrie, who died Tuesday of cardiac arrest.

Debbie famously divorced Eddie Fisher in 1959 after his affair with Elizabeth Taylor. Debbie married 2 more times in 1960 and 1984.

She played iconic roles in "Tammy and the Bachelor" and "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" ... for which she earned an Oscar nomination.

Carrie's relationship with Debbie was the focus of Carrie's semi-autobiographical book, "Postcards from the Edge," which was later adapted for the big screen, starring Meryl Streep and Shirley MacLaine.

Debbie's survived by her son Todd, who tells us, "She's with Carrie."

She was 84.
 
Wow,
Incredibly unfortunate and my heart goes out to the family as this must be a super difficult time for them.
Just a shitty situation all around.

Rest in Peace to Debbie and Carrie. Such bullshit for the family. I don't know how I would go on under such circumstances.
 
RIP

Thoughts and prayers for Todd, Billie, Gary and the rest of their families and friends.

These past few days have been truly rough for all of them.

This fucking poor family. Jesus christ. I cannot even imagine losing two members of your family within days of each other like that. :(
