Mia Farrow and ex-husband Andre Previn have lost the first of their adopted children named Lark Previn, who died Christmas Day. Read more on Lark Previn’s death below.

Lark Previn, the Vietnamese-born adopted daughter of Farrow and musician Andre Previn, died on Christmas Day, the medical examiner stated Monday.

Lark Previn, 35, was a mother of two girls that had been sick for over 10 years. A cause of death was not released.

Lark’s two daughters, Sara, 13, and Christine, 12, sat in the front row at her wake last night at a Brooklyn funeral home.

Robert Garcia, Previn’s live-in boyfriend, declined comment.

Neighbors in the couple’s Clinton Hill apartment building said she was somewhat reclusive and never mentioned her mother Mia Farrow was a celebrity.

“We never knew. She never let on,” said Lillian Rivera, 42, a neighbor. “She was a mystery.”

Lark had become very thin and had lost most of her hair in the past months.

“It’s very sad,” the neighbor said.

Lark Previn and her sister, Daisy, 34, were the first of Farrow’s adopted children.

Lark Previn, a daughter of actress Mia Farrow whose sister Soon-Yi Previn was at the center of Farrow’s messy breakup with Woody Allen, has died. She was 35.

Lark Previn died Christmas Day at New York Methodist Hospital in Brooklyn, the medical examiner’s office said. No cause of death was given. A cremation was held Tuesday at Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery.

Lark Previn was born in Vietnam in 1973. She was one of three children adopted by Farrow and her then-husband, conductor Andre Previn. The couple also had three biological children.

Representatives for Farrow and Previn didn’t immediately return calls seeking comment.

Farrow adopted two children and had a biological son during her relationship with Allen. She starred in several of Allen’s movies during their relationship, which ended in 1992 when she found out that Woody Allen was having an affair with her adopted daughter Soon-Yi, then 22.

The bitter custody battle that followed featured accusations by Farrow that Allen had sexually abused adopted daughter Dylan, 7. Allen was exonerated of the abuse charges but Farrow won sole custody of the children.

Soon-Yi Previn married Allen, who is 35 years her senior, in 1997. They have two adopted daughters.

The Farrow-Allen custody fight featured court testimony that Farrow favored her biological children over her adopted children, including Lark. A movie producer testified on Allen’s behalf that Lark was viewed as a “scullery maid” who “did most of the chores.” Farrow’s supporters said she was a loving mother to all her children.

Our condolences to Lark Previn’s friends and family.
