Kim Cattrall is mourning the death of her mother Shane Cattrall, just four years after her youngest brother tragically passed away. The Sex and the City star announced the sad news on Tuesday on her Instagram.

Sharing seven pictures of Kim and her mother together over the years, she simply captioned the photos: "Shane Cattrall 1929 – 2022 Rest in peace Mum."

Friends and fans rushed to comfort the star, with Paul O'Grady writing: "Oh I'm sorry Kim, lots of love to you."

"This is not like Chris," she wrote at the time. "Help us bring him home safe." Later that week, the Liverpool-born actress posted a message on Twitter which read: "It is with great sadness that myself and my family announce the unexpected passing of our son and brother, Chris Cattrall. At this time we ask for privacy. We want to thank you all on social media for your outpouring of love and support in this trying time."

Two years later, Kim paid tribute to him on what have been his 57th birthday. In the snap, the pair are smiling widely at the camera, and the Sex and the City actress captioned the post: "Happy Birthday to my little brother, Christopher aka ‘Topher’ or ‘Toe’. A sweet & gentle soul. Miss you today and everyday. RIP."
