Fans have offered their condolences to Paul O'Grady after he was given some "awful" news upon returning home from starring on stage in Newcastle earlier this week.
The 67-year-old star shared that one of his beloved pets, pig Tom Tom, had sadly been put to sleep while he was away. The pig had been diagnosed with a tumour, Paul explained, as he wrote a sweet tribute to the animal alongside a short clip of Tom Tom on social media.
Paul had been performing at the Theatre Royal on tour with the hit musical Annie, in which he stars as Miss Hannigan, when he came home to the sad news. The For the Love of Dogs host is known for his lifelong love of animals, with his farm having been home to pigs, sheep, goats, donkeys, chickens, geese and more.
