Little Britain and Shooting Stars' Matt Lucas has taken a break from the West End play 'Prick Up Your Ears' after his former lover Kevin McGee.

McGee was found hanged on Monday after updating his Facebook status with "Kevin McGee thinks that death is much better than life."

The couple "married" in December 2006 and threw a pantomime-themed celebration atttended by friends including Sir Elton John, Will Young and Paul O'Grady. The pair went their separate ways civil partnership 10 months ago on the grounds of McGee's unreasonable behaviour, which The Sun suggests involved drug-taking.

    • I wondered whether he'd pull out. I saw the play a few weeks ago and when I heard the news of McGee's suicide, I thought it would be too much for Matt to play someone who also commits suicide. It would be too much for most people to bear.
