Robin Williams’ habit of taking his beloved Mrs Doubtfire character into the real world to delight unsuspecting strangers has been revealed in a touching new recollection as fans and loved ones prepare to mark 12 years since the actor’s death.
Williams, who died by suicide in August 2014 at the age of 63 at his home in Tiburon, California, remains one of Hollywood’s most cherished performers.
Among his most celebrated roles was Daniel Hillard in the 1993 hit Mrs Doubtfire, in which a divorced father disguises himself as a Scottish nanny to remain close to his children.
