Selfless Darius Danesh helped Sheridan Smith through 'toughest time of her life'

Darius Campbell Danesh helped Sheridan Smith through one of the hardest times of her life before his untimely passing.

Darius was tragically found dead in his home in Minnesota on August 11 aged 41, but had previously opened up about his close friendship with the Gavin & Stacey actress. The two starred in the West End production Funny Girl of 2016 and remained close afterwards.

During a 2017 Loose Women interview, the Colourblind singer opened up about his friendship with Sheridan as he gushed over her incredible acting talents, calling the actress 'one of his best mates'. At this time, Sheridan was navigating through a tough period after the death of her father, and Darius was there to help her through the hardship, writes the Mirror.
