CBB star Kim Woodburn dies aged 83 as loved ones pay tribute
English television personality Kim Woodburn has passed away at the age of 83 after a short illness.
Kim, who was affectionately known as the "Queen of Clean", rose to fame in the mid-2000s when she co-presented How Clean is your House? on Channel 4, as well as its Canadian spin-off, Kim's Rude Awakenings.
The Hampshire native went on to appear on a number of reality TV shows over the years, including I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! and Celebrity Big Brother.
A representative for Kim shared in a statement: "It is with immense sadness that we let you know our beloved Kim Woodburn passed away yesterday following a short illness.
"Kim was an incredibly kind, caring, charismatic and strong person. Her husband Peter is heartbroken at the loss of his soulmate.
"We are so proud of the amazing things Kim achieved in her life and career. We kindly ask that Kim's husband and close friends are given the time and privacy they need to grieve.
"We will not be releasing any further details."
Kim had confirmed in March that she would be stepping back from public life as she had been diagnosed with a health problem.
