ACTRESS Amy Huberman has been left heartbroken after her beloved father has passed away.

Harold was diagnosed with Parkinson's and had been living in the care of a nursing home for the past few years.

Just a week ago, he celebrated his 84th birthday.

Her husband and former Ireland rugby captain Brian O'Driscoll paid tribute to his father-in-law on social media yesterday.

He wrote: "RIP to my lovely father-inlaw Harold"

Amy spoke about her father on his birthday describing him as "gorgeous, kind, courageous, clever, very, very funny and all-round total messer dad.

"He taught me so many important life lessons, too many to mention."

Amy, 43, previously opened up about her father's illness - saying his ill health and Covid has robbed him of time with his grandchildren.
