Lazytown star Robbie Rotten has sadly died following a two-year battle with cancer.

Actor, Stefan Karl Stefansson, 43, who played the villain in the popular children’s TV show has been remembered lovingly by fans of the show.

The actor’s wife Steinunn Olina Porsteinsdottir, posted an emotional tribute to her “beloved” Lazytown star husband.

“Stefan’s family wants to express their gratitude for the support and warmth received in recent years, and to express their deepest sympathy to the many friends and fans of Stefan Karl,” she wrote.

Our thoughts are with Stefan’s family and friends.

I have watched many episodes with my children. Such a great character.

  • This reminded me of my son’s childhood – Lazy Town was big as my son was just outgrowing it. So young to be lost to the world. RIP.

  • It’s tough explaining to children why their favourite characters vanish from our screens or get replaced. They notice the difference..
