Actress Wendy Richard dies at 65Former EastEnders actress Wendy Richard has died aged 65, her agent has confirmed.
The star, who played Pauline Fowler in the BBC One soap opera, had been suffering from cancer.
Her agent Kevin Francis said: "She was incredibly brave and retained her sense of humour right to the end."
Last October, Richard revealed she had an aggressive, terminal form of cancer. Soon after that she married her long-term partner John Burns.
In January, she was told the disease had spread to her right kidney and bones.
Francis said the star passed away in the Harley Street Clinic in London with her husband by her side.
The actress also appeared in sitcoms Are You Being Served?, Dad's Army and Grace & Favour.
