Susan Schneider Williams, the widow of the late Robin Williams, has spoken out about the plentiful "misunderstandings" around her husband's death in a new interview.

Williams, a beloved actor and comedian, took his own life in 2014 when he was 63.

After his death it was revealed that he was battling a degenerative condition, Lewy Body Dementia.

Speaking to the Guardian, Susan revealed that she learnt about his diagnosis after his death.

 

"The doctors said to me after the autopsy: 'Are you surprised that your husband had Lewy bodies throughout his entire brain and brain stem?'

"I didn't even know what Lewy bodies were, but I said: 'No, I'm not surprised.' The fact that something had infiltrated every part of my husband's brain? That made perfect sense."
