Dale Winton has passed away at the age of 62, his agent has said.

The TV presenter was best known for hosting game shows including Supermarket Sweep and Hole in the Wall.

He died at his home on Wednesday (April 18), his agent Jan Kennedy said in a statement.

"While we know many will share this terrible loss, we ask that you respect the family's privacy at this time of grief," she said.

He presented many shows during his career, including In It To Win It, Pets Win Prizes and various National Lottery programmes.

More recently, he has starred in a Channel 5 series called Dale Winton's Florida Fly Drive.

In June 2016, he revealed that he had been battling depression after a relationship ended. He said: "I should have taken myself off the TV but I didn't."

He added: "I always thought, 'Get over yourself.' But my mum died of it. It exists and anybody out there who has had it knows it exists. I didn't want to put one foot in front of the other but for a couple of really good friends."

In January, he revealed that he had four surgeries, after problems with his shoulder and knee.
