Several weeks before he passed away, Paul Grant was interviewed at King’s Cross station.
This Monday, it was reported that the 56-year-old actor from Harry Potter and Star Wars had died after falling at King’s Cross station.
In what is believed to be Paul’s final interview, the actor stated, “I’ve been drinking too much” and added, “I need to quit.”
In the cinematic rendition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, the father of three portrayed an Ewok.
According to MailOnline, the deceased actor allegedly said that he had “spent” his Star Wars riches on “drugs and sex workers.”
Speaking to YouTube channel Revelation 22:13, Paul said: ‘I’ve been thinking about this, it’s my last day of drinking. I’ve been drinking too much.’
Paul also insisted he wasn’t ‘addicted’ to drinking, saying: ‘[I] can drink a whole f*****g day or a month, but I’m not addicted to it.’
Last week, his family informed The Sun that his life support system was turned off on Sunday (March 19), after he was discovered unconscious by police on Thursday afternoon (March 16) and pronounced brain dead by medics.
Daughter Sophie Jayne Grant, 28 years old and from Peterborough, said, “I’m sad.”
‘My dad was a legend in so many ways.
‘He always brought a smile and laughter to everyone’s face. He would do anything for anyone and was a massive Arsenal fan. He was an actor, father and grandad.
‘He loved his daughters and son and his girlfriend Maria very much.
‘My dad, I love you so much, sleep tight.’
His girlfriend, Maria Dwyer, 64, hailed him ‘the love of my life’ and ‘the funniest man I know.’
‘He made my life complete. Life is never going to be the same without him,’ she said.
A family member reportedly informed the media source that Paul, who stood 1.32m tall, referred to himself as “King of the Dwarfs.”
‘He’s always battled with drugs and alcohol addiction but he was a talented actor,’ they shared.
In addition to appearing opposite Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, and Daniel Radcliffe, Paul’s other acting accomplishments include Willow (1998) with Val Kilmer and Legend (1985) with Tom Cruise.
He also co-starred with David Bowie in the 1986 film Labyrinth.
