Ellen DeGeneres has honoured Carrie Fisher on her chat show, saying “I miss you”.
The talk show host, 58, spoke of her love for her friend, who was a frequent guest on the US show.
“I knew her for a long time. She has been on the show many times and the last time was just a month ago. I loved when she was here. She made me laugh so hard,” she said.

“She was smart. She was funny. She was hilariously honest about herself and the world around her.”
Ellen played a montage of appearances on her show by the late Star Wars actress, who died in hospital on December 27, at the age of 60.
“I miss you Carrie. I love you,” Ellen said.

The star died four days after suffering a heart attack on a flight from London to Los Angeles.
Her mother, actress Debbie Reynolds, died from a suspected stroke aged 84 just a day after her daughter.
They will be buried together at the Hollywood Hills’ Forest Lawn Memorial Park following a joint funeral.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
