“Dad was, is and always will be one of the kindest, most generous, gentlest souls I've ever known, and while there are few things I know for certain right now, one of them is that not just my world, but the entire world is forever a little darker, less colourful and less full of laughter in his absence,” Zelda’s statement reads. “We'll just have to work twice as hard to fill it back up again."

A number of celebrities have paid tribute to Robin on Twitter, including Ricky Gervais, who wrote: “I am deeply saddened. He was a lovely man who would keep everyone laughing even if he wasn't feeling good himself. RIP Robin Williams.”
