Britain’s Prince Charles has paid tribute to "remarkable" Robin Williams.
The 65-year-old prince had met the ‘Hook’ star – who was found hanged on Monday (11.08.14) – several times and spoke of his "wonderfully frenetic humour" and admitted he will miss the actor’s "irreplaceable contribution to life".
In a statement published on his official website, Charles said: "He was a remarkable man, whose wonderfully frenetic humour brought a special kind of laughter into people’s lives.
"I greatly enjoyed meeting him on several occasions and his irreplaceable contribution to life will be greatly missed by countless people, including myself."
In November 2008, making his first UK performance for 25 years, Robin performed at a show titled ‘We Are Most Amused’ in aid of Charles’ youth charity The Prince’s Trust, and the prince, his wife Duchess Camilla, and youngest son Prince Harry all attended the gig, which also saw performances from the likes of John Cleese and Joan Rivers.
Six months later, Charles and the ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’ star teamed up again alongside the prince’s sons, Harry and Prince William, Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Pele, and the Dalai Lama, for an online film for The Prince of Wales’s Rainforests Project.
