Ford explained: "She’s been sick sadly for a couple of months now, so condolences to Mick and the entire family.

"She was great talent – the producers struck gold when they found her."

Her death was confirmed by a spokesperson at Foxtel.

They said: "We are unbelievably saddened to hear of the passing of Di Kershaw.

"For the past eight years we were privileged to have her luminescent character make us chuckle with her sardonic wit, crackling laugh and her impeccable style on Gogglebox.

"From everyone at FOXTEL, Network 10, and Endemol Shine Australia we extend our condolences and love to husband Mick and the rest of the family.

"Thank you for letting us share the warmth, humour and heart of your wife, mother, and grandmother. 

"Di would always sign off correspondence with ‘Pleasure Treasure’, but the pleasure was all ours and we will treasure it forever.”
