Jo Wood has share an emotional tribute to her brother who has died after a battle with pneumonia.
Paul Karslake, 61, an artist from Leigh, died yesterday morning after he was rushed to hospital with breathing difficulties.
Jo, 63, who is the former wife of Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie, left a heartfelt message to her sibling on Instagram along with a picture of them together together.
She wrote: “This is my brother @Paulkarslakefa who died today…I love him so much I’ll miss him so much a funny, talented, wonderful, father, husband and brother…life won’t be the same without him. RIP brother. I love you #brother #heartbroken #seeyouontheotherside #alwaysinmyheart.”
A statement on Paul’s Instagram page confirmed he had been taken to hospital with breathing difficulties.
“It is with deep sorrow that we have to announce Paul’s sad passing this morning,” the statement said.
“He was taken to hospital yesterday morning with breathing problems and at present we do not know the exact cause of his passing.
“The family have also asked that you try not to go to Paul’s workshop as it is shut and in this current time it is dangerous to gather with the guidelines for self isolation.
“It is however appreciated how much he was loved.
“Paul was a fantastic husband, a wonderful father, an amazing family man and an excellent friend to all. He is now at peace.”
Jo was married to Ronnie Wood for 23 years until they split in 2007. The pair then divorced two years later in 2009.
