Sharing a series of images of him, his sister Tracy and their “fierce and witty” role model, Guy told of his heartbreak.

“‘Kicked the bucket’ as she would say. What a sharp, fierce & witty woman Anne was, until Alzheimer’s struck in 2010.
“It’s been a long & winding road. A fitting song 4 ur departure Mum. Tracy & I will miss u enormously. We’ll always love u XX.”
Fans and fellow stars offered their support and condolences under the post shared on X, formerly known as Twitter.

She was a staunch supporter of her son’s acting career that saw him rise to fame on the hit Aussie soap opera Neighbours.
He played Mike Young before leaving in 1989, when he went on to carve a successful career in Hollywood.
Global names such as Margot Robbie and Jason Donovan first found fame in the soap’s Ramsay Street.
Guy became close pals with Kylie Minogue after they became co-stars and went on to collaborate on a film in 2016.
He has since starred in films including Iron Man 3, Prometheus, The Hurt Locker and Memento.
