Maggie Smith’s son Toby Stephens has opened up about the final weeks of the acclaimed actor’s life.

“I’d spent hours and days sitting with her at home and in hospital over the course of two years, and there was nothing I had left unsaid,” Stephens said.

Smith’s health was in decline for the final two years of her life and by 2023, the Oscar-winning actor had stopped working altogether.
