In April this year, Colin Fry revealed that he had been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer.

And now, tragically, he has passed away at the age of 53.

A statement on his official website said: "It is with much sadness and regret to announce that the Reverend Colin Fry, Britain's most loved and respected spiritualist medium, lost his fight against cancer and passed away peacefully in hospital in the early hours at 2.50am this morning.

"Colin brought a lot of comfort to his audiences in a career which spanned for more than 30 years. Our sympathies and condolences go out to Colin's family and friends.

"We, as his management, for many years would like to add that he was the most charming man with the biggest heart, who devoted his life to helping others, and he will be sorely missed. May his dear soul rest in peace."

Derek Acorah, another leading television psychic, took to Twitter to lead tributes to Colin Fry.

He wrote: “It is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of my dear friend Colin Fry. Condolences to his family and friends.”

Colin’s manager added: "He had a very big heart.

"Since the diagnosis, he'd been very upbeat. Because of what he does he had no fear of death. He often told me he had no fear of dying."

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this sad time.
