Joan Washington Obituary: Richard E Grant’s wife Joan Washington has died aged 71. Sharing a video of them dancing together to the song Only You by The Platters on Twitter, the 64-year-old actor wrote: “ONLY YOU! Joan – Love of my Life & Giver of Life to our daughter Olivia. “To be truly known and seen by you, is your immeasurable gift. Do not forget us, sweet Monkee-mine.”
The couple had been together for 38 years, after they met when Washington, a voice and dialect coach, was teaching at an acting school in December 1982. They got married in 1986, with Grant saying he never really considered marriage until he met her. They share a daughter, Olivia, and a stepson, Tom, from Washington’s previous relationship.

My heart is broken 💔Joan Washington had such a profound impact on me, yes as an artist, but mostly as a woman. I’ve looked toward her. Her strive towards excellence made her the celebrated dialect coach she was. We worked together on The Debt, Poirot, Coriolanus, Miss Julie, Crimson Peak, The Zookeeper’s Wife, & The 355.
Every day I was excited to go to work and giggle with Joan. She was a barometer of truth with a wicked sense of humor. I loved her very much. The way she celebrated her family has been very meaningful to see over the years. My heart goes to her beloved Richard and Oilly. You were always her North Star.
