TV personality Kim Woodburn has died at the age of 83, her manager has confirmed. She passed away on Monday following a short illness.
Woodburn became a household name as the co-presenter of Channel 4’s How Clean Is Your House, where she shared practical cleaning advice alongside Aggie MacKenzie from 2003 to 2009.
Her sharp wit and no-nonsense style made her a fan favourite, leading to further appearances on popular reality shows.
She was the runner-up on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2009 and finished in third place on Celebrity Big Brother in 2017. Her stint on Loose Women also made headlines, particularly after a heated exchange with panellist Coleen Nolan.
