Paul O’Grady has paid tribute to actor Leslie Jordan on Instagram, telling fans he is “absolutely gutted” by his death.
US star Leslie, 67, passed away yesterday (Monday October 24) after his car crashed into a building in Hollywood. He reportedly experienced a medical episode that led to the collision and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Leslie was perhaps best known for his Emmy-winning turn as Beverly Leslie on Will & Grace.
Among his many other TV credits that delighted fans were appearances in 2014’s Celebrity Big Brother and Benidorm, too.
However, it seems Leslie also touched telly superstar Paul‘s life, who expressed his shock at the news on Instagram on Monday evening.
