In a statement, her family said, “We are very sad to tell you that Sue has died. Also a caring mother to Ian and Hannah, a loving grandmother to Tom and George, and a wonderful mother-in-law to Lucy.”
This morning, she died at home with her family around her. She was a good writer who wrote a lot, a charismatic TV host, and an animal lover who cared deeply about animals.
The Independent says, “She had a life and career that many people would envy. But she did it all with such grace that everyone who knew her admired and respected her.”
Really sorry to hear this. Sue was an absolute pleasure on events, and so welcoming and approachable as an industry newbie. My condolences to her family, she will be sorely missed.
