A number of celebrities came together to pay their respects to Strictly Come Dancing star Robin Windsor at his private funeral in Ipswich.
Among those attending the funeral at the Seven Hills Crematorium in Felixstowe Road were Good Morning Britain presenter Susanna Reid, Dragons' Den star Deborah Meaden, Strictly judge Anton Du Beke and actress Lisa Riley.
Mourners who attended the funeral were asked to wear bright colours and also bring along rainbow umbrellas.
Windsor competed in four series of the hit BBC One show and his death came as a shock to all those who knew him.
In an earlier statement his family said: "The funeral will be a private service for invited family, friends and colleagues who were important to Robin in both his personal life and professional career.
“In the meantime we once again thank everyone for the love and the memories shared of Robin.
“As a family we also please ask for there to be no further upsetting speculation. We thank you for respecting our continued privacy at this difficult time.”
Posting on social media after the funeral Jason Gilkison, who worked alongside Windsor, said: "Well my beautiful Bobbie, I’m sitting here in Ipswich and reluctantly it’s time to say goodbye my dear friend.
"Thank you for a lifetime of friendship, laughter, rehearsals, unforgettable openings, nights out in unfamiliar cities, boozy lunches, karaoke nights in Japan, Vegas sunrises, tears over boyfriends past, Broadway standing ovations, San Francisco Halloweens, unforgettable nights in New Orleans, Spectacular Sydney sunsets and Wonderful Westend weekends
"I don’t think it’s possible to round a corner and not have a memory of your smiling face.
Keep that glitter-ball ball spinning.
"I’ll be there soon enough with a drink in each hand."
Windsor was forced to step back from Strictly Come Dancing in 2014 after becoming paralysed for several days following a back injury.
Tributes poured into the former Copleston High School student with Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood describing Windsor as "one of the kindest" people he has ever worked with.
The Latin and ballroom dancer first began dancing at the age of three when his parents enrolled him in classes in Ipswich.
He went on to represent England in numerous championships, both on the domestic and international levels.
He joined the cast of Burn The Floor in 2001 and toured the world for 10 years, with a nine-month run on Broadway.
