Joan Rivers, the famously acerbic comedian, has died aged 81.
Rivers died at New York’s Mount Sinai Hospital on Thursday, having suffered a cardiac arrest during an outpatient procedure last week.
In a statement, her daughter, Melissa, said: "My mother's greatest joy in life was to make people laugh. Although that is difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon."
Rivers had been due to perform a string of UK shows, including two nights at London’s Royal Albert Hall, next month.
