In his book Country Life, the star said there’s a “real learning curve to living in a rural community”.

The TV host took fans inside his home on numerous occasions on his Instagram account, revealing he lives on a farm and has all kinds of animals. But Paul really loves his country life with his furry friends by his side, and even wrote a book about it. When Paul bought an isolated smallholding in the depths of the Kent countryside, complete with a barn, outbuildings and even its own wood, he confessed that not everyone was convinced he’d be suited to rural life. He will be greatly missed by his loved ones, friends, family, animals and all those who enjoyed his humour, wit and compassion,” the professional ballerina said. After all, to the public he was known as his drag-act alter ego Lily Savage, a chain-smoking, peroxide-blonde Scouse bombshell.Paul is a supporter of many charities, Ambassador for Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, and Save the Children, and a patron of, among others, Orangutan Appeal UK and Wildlife SOS.

Stand-up comedian, author and television and radio presenter Julian Clary also lives in the village. Right now, his cause of death has not been revealed, but it comes suddenly and the star performed on stage in Annie just days prior.

All that stems from my love of the farm when I was a kid in Glinsk, it never goes away stuff like that. Any fan of Paul O'Grady will know of the love he has for animals so it will come as no surprise to find out he shares his home with a multitude of pets.

Photos shows Paul lying on his bed with one of his dogs on top of his head, or pigs looking out of their pen and puppies running alongside.O’Grady’s love of animals was also apparent through his other work and in September 2016, he was recognised for his work with animals when he won the award for Outstanding Contribution to Animal Welfare at the RSPCA’s Animal Hero Awards. On one page he described enduring one of many power cuts: “It gets dark around four o’clock down here and this leccy better bloody well be back on before then as I’m not sitting here in the bloody dark with a couple of candles like one of those Brontës. He spent three weeks filming in Kilmainham Gaol, including Easter Sunday, on the anniversary of the Easter Rising.

Despite being very rural and charming it has plenty of its own amenities, meaning that its 1,200 residents can happily isolate themselves within the village's boundaries. His Irish uncle taught him to milk a cow in Ireland, a skill that came in handy later in life when he owned cows, pigs, goats, chickens and sheep at his farm in Kent.He will be greatly missed by his loved ones, friends, family, animals and all those who enjoyed his humour, wit and compassion. So you’ll have a whole diary for a year and all I’ll have written is, ‘Pipe burst in bathroom, ceiling fell in, f*** it’. I think they had a vision of me riding through the fields all in black on the back of a coach with a whip and a gang of happy hookers in the back.

Speaking to Pat Kenny on The Late Late Show in 2008, O’Grady said he had a farm “because of Ireland.
