Sharon's sadness at world says goodbye to Princess Leia

Meath actress and writer Sharon Horgan has paid her own heartfelt tribute to Stars Wars icon Carrie Fisher (60), who passed away on Tuesday.

The Bellewstown woman who fought to have the Hollywood legend star in her hit show 'Catastrophe' described the Princess Leia star as one of the funniest people she had ever met.
Writing on her Instagram page she said 'Carrie was my friend. It took me three series but I got her in the end. She was the most generous, fun, gifted, smart, kind, funny, funny, funny person I've ever met. She certainly wasn't ready to go.”
“I'm so glad we became pals. I'm so devastated at her loss. I want to write about her more but I can't process yet.”
The heartfelt message was accompanied by an image showing Fisher and Horgan (46), sharing an embrace on the set of the series with the caption “Me, General Leia and Kylo Ren’s hand on the set of #catastrophe3.”
