In a statement, George’s publicist wrote:

It is with great sadness that we can confirm our beloved son, brother and friend George passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period. The family would ask that their privacy be respected at this difficult and emotional time. There will be no further comment at this stage.

George was 53.

On March 7, 2017 a senior coroner in Oxfordshire attributed the death to natural causes.
