Downton Abbey star Lesley Nicol's husband David Heald has died at the age of 68 - just days after revealing he had tested positive for Covid. Ms Nicol, also 68, who portrays cook Beryl Patmore in the hit period drama and follow-up films, has been left heartbroken by the 'unexpected' death, which was confirmed by her agent via a statement. It comes after David said in a Facebook post on April 26 that he had tested positive for Covid in a fit to fly test, although there is currently no suggestion that the illness played a part in his death.
