STAR Wars actor Paul Grant died on March 19, 2023, after collapsing at Kings’ Cross station three days prior.
Grant featured in a number of big budget films, but fell on hard times later in his career. Here, we look at Maria Dwyer, who was his girlfriend at the time of his death.
Maria Dwyer is the former girlfriend of Star Wars actor Paul Grant.
Grant died on March 19, 2023, after doctors declared him brain dead.
He had been found collapsed by police at Kings’ Cross station on March 16, 2023, and was promptly rushed to hospital.
Grant’s family made the difficult decision to turn off his life support machine.
A London Ambulance Service spokesperson said: “We were called at 2.08pm on Thursday 16 March to reports of an incident at St Pancras Station, Euston Road.
“We sent an ambulance crew and a medic in a response car. We treated a man at the scene and took him to hospital as a priority.”
Dwyer did not have any children during her relationship with Grant.
Grant had three children from his marriage to Janet Crowson, named Janet, Nicole and Robbie.
Janet paid tribute to her father following his death.
She said: “I’m devastated. 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.”
Dwyer paid tribute to her boyfriend in a statement.
She said: “Paul was the love of my life.
“The funniest man I know. He made my life complete. Life is never going to be the same without him.”
