In an Instagram post, The Office star thanked family, friends and fans for the “kindness and support” she has received in the past few days.
“Truly, I am in shock,” she said, before clarifying that she is “still alive” after “a couple of people slightly misread the news and commented RIP”.
Her words of gratitude came alongside a video of her trying to skateboard, which she said continues to make her laugh as it made her realise she has “no sporting ability whatsoever”.
