“She passed away peacefully in hospital early this morning, Friday 27th September,” the siblings, whom Smith shared with ex-husband Robert Stephens, continued. “An intensely private person, she was with friends and family at the end.

“She leaves two sons and five loving grandchildren who are devastated by the loss of their extraordinary mother and grandmother,” they added. “We would like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful staff at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital for their care and unstinting kindness during her final days.”

The siblings concluded the statement by thanking Smith’s fans and asking for “privacy at this time.”
