Broadcaster Zoe Ball says her family are "bereft" following her mother's death from cancer.
The BBC Radio 2 presenter paid tribute to her mother for "teaching us how to love unconditionally" and said: "Your grace & your smile that lit up every room you were in, will light the stars to guide us."
Ball, 53, shared news of her mother's death on social media with a younger picture of her and the caption: "Sleep tight dear Mama."
Ball had announced her mother's "heartbreaking" diagnosis in early March, saying it had been an "extremely tough" time but "mum is being incredibly brave".
The presenter confirmed Gaby Roslin would "occasionally" replace her on The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show so she could spend time with her mother, who was later taken to a hospice.
