Magda Szubanski’s mother Margaret has passed away at the age of 92.
The actress shared the heartbreaking announcement last night on social media, writing: ‘RIP Margaret Szubański 5/11/1924-4/9/2017′.
Last month, the Kath and Kim actress posted a black and white photo of her mother and opened up about her frailty in her old age.
‘This is mum two months ago. She has grown so much frailer since then. Her voice has faded to less than a whisper,’ she said.
‘Her thoughts often an incoherent jumble of past and present, real and imagined. Now even her sense of humour is fading. I think maybe that is the thing I find hardest to bear. What Bette Davis said is so true – ‘Old age ain’t no place for sissies’.
Fans shared their condolences on Instagram.
‘So sorry for your loss Magda. Our thoughts are with you and your family,’ wrote one.
Another said: ‘I’m so sorry to hear of your incredible loss. Sending you lots of healing vibes.’
Thoughts are with Magda and her family.
