Maggie Griffin, the mother and frequent TV co-star of comedian Kathy Griffin, died Tuesday, her daughter has announced. She was 99 and had been living with dementia for at least two years.
“My Mom, the one and only Maggie Griffin, passed away today,” Kathy Griffin tweeted. “I am gutted. My best friend. I’m shaking. I won’t ever be prepared. I’m so grateful you guys got to be part of her life. You knew her. You loved her. She knew it. Oh, and OF COURSE she went on St Patrick’s Day.”
Maggie Griffin often appeared on Griffin’s Bravo reality show My Life on the D-List, building up her own fan base. She also appeared in Kathy and Kathy Griffin: A Hell of a Story.
“She appreciated you guys so much,” Kathy Griffin wrote on Instagram, adding, “You loved her. I know it. She knew it.”
