Nancy Reagan — whose romance with husband Ronald Reagan took her from Hollywood to the White House — has passed away at the age of 94. The National ENQUIRER revealed just months ago that the beloved former First Lady was in her sad final days. The legendary lady was a fighter though, and kept up plenty of feuds right up until the end…

The Reagan”s Celebrate Their 50th Anniversary
Nancy, who will be buried at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, next to her husband, was revealed by The ENQUIRER to be wheelchair-bound after breaking three ribs in a fall. “Mrs. Reagan appeared disoriented, pale, weak and very fragile,” an eyewitness who saw her late last year told The ENQUIRER. “She was so bony that her clothes appeared to be falling off her!”

Nancy never lost her vigor for a few good battles, though. The ENQUIRER even revealed that Nancy had spent decades in a long-simmering feud over which starlet should've married Ronald Reagan! "Nancy has wanted nothing to do with Doris Day for more than 60 years," said an insider, "and it's all because of Ronnie!"

The rivalry between the ladies began after the future President divorced first wife Jane Wyman in 1949. Reagan met Doris on the set of "Storm Warning" the next year. Sparks flew as friends encouraged the actor to make a movie — but Ronnie was reluctant to make a commitment, and agent Marty Melcher swooped in to became Doris' third husband in 1951!

Ronald Reagan Carrying Doris Day
"Ronnie remained smitten with Doris," confirmed an insider. "He loved to watch her films, he loved her records, he loved everything about her. Nancy knew that, and it made her feel like leftovers. She refused to let Ronnie even speak Doris' name around the house!"

"I think Doris, at times," added the friend, "has wished that she could've been the one who helped Ronnie get to the White House." Sadly, the two women were never able to bond over their mutual love for the man who became one of America's greatest political leaders. In her final years, Nancy refused to reach out to her husband's dear friend. "This is a feud," the source said at the time, "that won't end until both of them are in their graves!"

Nancy also never forgave author Kitty Kelly for implying that she had a passionate affair with Frank Sinatra during her husband's days in the White House. Nancy got the last laugh, however, when the blockbuster book, “Sinatra: The Chairman,” revealed that Frank had actually turned to Nancy for feminine companionship

Two years after Frank performed at President Ronald Reagan’s 1981 inaugural gala, he was “spending more and more time apart” from fourth wife Barbara, revealed author James Kaplan. Frank had enjoyed torrid affairs with beauties like Lana Turner, Marilyn Monroe and Angie Dickinson, but his problems with Barbara had more to do with his “impotence” rather than infidelity, added the author.

Nancy even kept up her long-running fight with Jane Fonda — who played Mrs. Reagan (as pictured) in the critically-acclaimed movie "The Butler!" Sources told The ENQUIRER that Nancy approved of Jane’s acting job in the critically acclaimed movie,
but she refused to forgive Fonda for her real-life role as “Hanoi Jane.”

A fierce opponent of the Vietnam War, the actress traveled to North Vietnam and was photographed sitting on an enemy anti-aircraft gun, seeming to support the communists. “Nancy will never forgive or forget what Fonda did because she knows that President Reagan would never forgive her,” revealed a source close to the family. “So many U.S. servicemen died for our country in the war, and Jane is still viewed as a traitor by many vets.”

Jane might have been able to mend things with Nancy over her surprisingly sympathetic portrayal — but then the Oscar winner did a promotional interview for "The Butler" while wearing a “Hanoi Jane” T-shirt – showing her back in the day with a clenched, raised fist. “If Nancy had any lingering thoughts about forgiving Jane, those were erased by her wearing that shirt,” said the source. “It was a slap in the face to Nancy – and to Ronnie!”

The matriarch was also kept busy in her final days overseeing family feuds even as her health rapidly deteriorated. Her children were already busy fighting over her $15 million estate, with Nancy's biological kids Ron and Patti Davis
feuding with their dad's adopted son Michael (at center) on the other side.

Insiders said the two were begging Nancy, to completely freeze Michael out of her will! "Both Ron and Patti can't stand Michael," revealed a family friend at the time."They feel that when Nancy dies, Michael doesn't deserve a dime of the Reagan estate. That's because Jane Wyman was Michael's mom, not Nancy."

"But Michael believes he deserves something since all the money comes from his dad's property,"continued the friend. "Meanwhile, he hates Ron and Patti with a passion. They never supported their dad politically, as he did." Michael is especially bitter at Ron for publishing "My Father at 100" in 2011. The conservative radio talk-show host took to his Twitter page to denounce the book and its claim that the elder Reagan may have had Alzheimer's when he was president.

"My brother seems to want to sell out his father to sell books...my father did not suffer from Alzheimer's in the 1980s," Michael furiously tweeted — and later later added: "Ron, my brother,was an embarrassment to my father when he was alive and today [after the book's publication] he became an embarrassment to his mother." Now insiders are waiting to see who won in that battle, as Nancy's last will and testament gets closer to being revealed!
