When did Paul O’Grady die?

Paul died on March 28, 2023. At the time, Andre said For the Love of Dogs host Paul died “unexpectedly” but “peacefully”.

It was later confirmed that Paul died from “sudden cardiac arrhythmia”.

In October 2023, Andre opened up about Paul’s final hours. At a memorial service for Paul, Andre reportedly said: “We’d had a very ordinary day. Just watching TV together at home, when Paul said he wanted to make a ‘cup of tea’. And that was our ­little code for rolling a spliff.

“So Paul went to the kitchen to make a cup of tea, brought it back, lit it and started smoking it. And that was our last time together, the last thing we did. He passed away there in his chair.”

A source told the Mirror: “Paul is obviously irreplaceable but they believe that not only does Alison bring some of Paul’s trademark self-deprecating humour to proceedings, but that she can also make it her own, just as Paul did.”
