However, he also said that Tanya is in a critical condition without disclosing her medical details.
Earlier, while announcing her death, Mike had told The Hollywood Reporter, "I'm devastated. She was brilliant and beautiful and I feel like a light has been taken away. To say she was an angel would be at the top of the list. She was the sweetest person you'd ever meet and had a huge heart. She loved her fans, and I don't think she realised how much she meant to them."
