After the death of his wife Samantha, Warwick Davis has decided to take time off social media. His wife of 35 years, who also had dwarfism like the actor, passed away at the age of 53 last month. This has definitely been hard on the family, which led to the actor deciding on going off social media.

On April 21, the actor, 54, wrote on X:

“I’m done here, Sgning off. 💔”

This, of course, led to the fans being concerned about the actor after he had recently revealed the news of his wife’s passing. Seeing the concern among fans, his children, Annabelle and Harrison, posted another tweet on behalf of their father and their family, thanking people for their support in such difficult times.

“Thank you everyone for looking out for our Dad, he is taking some time away from social media. He apologises if his last message caused anyone concern. We appreciate all of your love and support, Annabelle and Harrison x”

The Davis family is grieving the loss of their matriarch, and understandably, want to take time off social media to be with each other.
