His Royal Highness said: “Joan Rivers was an extraordinary woman with an original and indefatigable spirit, an unstoppable sense of humour and an enormous zest for life. She will be hugely missed and utterly irreplaceable.”
The star died at age 81 in a New York hospital Thursday afternoon – just a week after suffering cardiac arrest during throat surgery.
Joan was a guest at Their Royal Highnesses’ wedding in 2005 and performed for His Royal Highness, The Duchess of Cornwall, The Duke of Cambridge and Prince Harry at the “We Are Most Amused” comedy gala, in aid of The Prince’s Trust, for his 60th birthday.
