Kim Woodburn, the British reality star best known for “How Clean Is Your House?”, has died. She was 83.

Woodburn passed away Monday after a short illness, her manager confirmed to BBC News.

“Kim was an incredibly kind, caring, charismatic, and strong individual,” the manager stated. “Her husband Peter is devastated by the loss of his soulmate.”

The statement went on to say, “We are immensely proud of the remarkable achievements Kim accomplished in her life and career. We kindly request that Kim’s husband and close friends are allowed the time and privacy they need to mourn.”

Woodburn’s husband, Peter, mourned her death in a post on her Instagram account Tuesday.

“My wonderful, beautiful, Kim passed away last night. God bless, my love, xx xx,” Peter wrote, alongside photos of the late star over the years.

Woodburn’s cause of death has not been confirmed.

In March, a message on Woodburn’s Instagram mentioned that she was dealing with “a health problem.”

“We regret to inform you that Kim will be unable to record any more videos for the foreseeable future due to a health issue,” the post noted, also adding, “Kim sends her love to you all.”

Woodburn, known as the “Queen of Clean,” was born in Hampshire but moved to Liverpool when she was 16 and became a live-in cleaner.

On the BBC show “Heaven and Earth” in 2008, Woodburn opened up about her difficult childhood including being sent to boarding school.

“I found the nuns extremely cruel, my sister and I were there. We were very young, we were all very badly treated,” she said, per BBC. “They beat you, they were very cold to you. I was about three or four. There was no kindness at all.”

When she was in her 20s, Woodburn got pregnant and gave birth to a stillborn son who she buried in a park in Liverpool.

Woodburn later rose to fame on the Channel 4 series “How Clean Is Your House?”

She co-presented the series alongside Aggie Mackenzie from 2003 to 2009. During each episode, the pair did a deep cleaning of someone’s house and shared their own tips for tidying up.

Woodburn went on to appear on the UK version of “Celebrity Big Brother” in 2017. She notoriously fell out with “Loose Women” star Colleen Nolan on the show.

In 2018, the pair came to blows again when Woodburn came onto the ITV talk show. Woodburn called Nolan “lying trash” and a “piece of filth” before she stormed off the set.

Woodburn’s reality TV career also included an appearance on “I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!” in 2009, where she came in second place.

Woodburn was married twice. Her first marriage was to Kenneth Davies which ended in divorce in 1975.

Four years later, she married Peter and they lived together in Nantwich, Cheshire.
