Paul O’Grady, who broke on to the scene with his drag act persona Lily Savage, has died at the age of 67.

His husband, Andre Portasio, confirmed in a statement that O’Grady died “unexpectedly but peacefully” on Tuesday evening.

“We ask, at this difficult time, that whilst you celebrate his life you also respect our privacy as we come to terms with this loss,” Portasio said in a statement.

“He will be greatly missed by his loved ones, friends, family, animals and all those who enjoyed his humour, wit and compassion.

“I know that he would want me to thank you for all the love you have shown him over the years.”

Lorraine was one a HUGE number of famous people who paid tribute to him, alongside millions of fans.

Such sad news. Paul O’Grady – funny, fearless, brave, kind and wise. Will be sorely missed. A really special man.

Raab

Well, during today’s PMQs Domnic Raab, got his name wrong and then even used the response to slam wokery, nice work Dom……..

Dominic Raab pays tribute to incredible drag queen and comic, Paul Grayson. Now that's what I call sincerity. #PMQs #PaulOGrady pic.twitter.com/IFeP3oNBgc

Dominic Raab has just called Paul O'Grady "Paul Grayson" before going on about wokery in comedy 🙄 what an absolute tit #PMQs

If you’re going to use a comedian who has just passed away to make stupid points about “wokery” you could at least have the courtesy to know their name is not “Paul Grayson” pic.twitter.com/AcV35qaL6H

What the actual fuck? In a twenty-five seconds, he manages to mix up Paul O'Grady with Larry Grayson and then uses this tragic death to spout right wing rubbish about comedy which Paul would have fundamentally disagreed with.#RipPaulOgrady https://t.co/s79NcXv1G6

Raab is so so awful. Mixing up Paul O'Grady with Larry Grayson and then whinging about 'wokery in comedy'.
Paul hated you and your entire Government. He wouldn't have wanted a tribute from you. https://t.co/MlrOuwI7qL

I’m not saying Dominic Raab had a poor PMQs but he appears to have confused Paul O’Grady with Larry Grayson (died 1995) before then co-opting him as someone at the front line of… the war on woke?

Doubtful but maybe he has been watching Peep Show…
