Samantha Davis, the creator of the Little People UK dwarfism organization and spouse of performer Warwick Davis, has passed away at 53 years old.

The Star Wars actor expressed his respect for his "most beloved person" who passed away on March 24th, via a written declaration.

The pair encountered each other while working on the Willow movie shoot back in 1988 and after three years, they got married.

Mr. Davis expressed that his family is experiencing a great loss since she passed away. He longs for her warm embraces.

The actor from the famous Harry Potter films referred to his companion, whom he affectionately called Sammy, as his "most reliable secret keeper and a passionate cheerleader for all of my professional achievements".

He described her as an extraordinary individual, constantly seeing the positive aspects of life and possessing a mischievous wit that resulted in her chuckling at my lame jokes.

Harrison and Annabelle, the offspring of the couple, accompanied their father in honoring their mother. They expressed that her affection and joyfulness had been instrumental throughout their entire existence.

Our mother is our closest companion and we feel privileged to be blessed with her love," they stated.

Mrs Davis had experience as an actress, having starred in a television show for children called Through the Dragon's Eye in 1989. She also acted alongside her husband in the movie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 in 2010.

"Having her as my companion gave me the confidence to believe that I could conquer anything, it was comparable to having an extraordinary ability," stated Mr. Davis.

If Sammy didn't exist, the Tenable quiz show, Willow series, and Idiot Abroad Series 3 would not have been created.

He mentioned that his spouse was the one who convinced Ricky Gervais, a comedian, to select him and Karl Pilkington for the travel program.

Apart from her career in acting, Mrs Davis and her spouse established the non-profit organization known as Little People UK in the year 2012. The charitable foundation aims to provide aid and support to those who have dwarfism as well as their loved ones.

The host of Tenable expressed that she had a strong desire to aid individuals without unfairly assessing them. She made herself available to everyone and sincerely listened to what people had to say.

According to Mr. Davis, his wife's ability to move around has decreased over time. However, she has made a firm decision that it will not affect her standard of living.

The company that broadcasts the show Willow, called Disney, expressed their sadness over the loss of Mrs Davis and stated that she was respected within the British film and TV industry. They also extended their sympathies to the Davis family during this period of hardship.
