Her last snap was taken on January 27 at drag queen The Vivienne's funeral in north Wales.
A representative for Kim said: "It is with immense sadness that we let you know our beloved Kim Woodburn passed away yesterday following a short illness.
"Kim was an incredibly kind, caring, charismatic and strong person.
"Her husband Peter is heartbroken at the loss of his soulmate.
"We are so proud of the amazing things Kim achieved in her life and career.
"We kindly ask that Kim's husband and close friends are given the time and privacy they need to grieve.
"We will not be releasing any further details."
The late TV personality was photographed arriving with her husband Peter Woodburn.
Kim starred in a number of shows including I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here in 2009 and Celebrity Big Brother in 2017.
She also regularly appeared on ITV's Loose Women and This Morning.
Born in March 1942, Kim moved out of her home at the age of 16.
In 2017 she revealed how she had been sexually abused by her dad from a young age.
She subsequently moved to Liverpool where she became a live-in cleaner.
In 2002, while working in similar role in Kent, Channel 4 reached out to a cleaning company seeking a cleaner with a "funny temperament" and she was recommended.
Following a screen test, she was paired with Aggie MacKenzie and filming for the now iconic show began just weeks later.

She finished as runner-up on the show to TV chef Gino D'Acampo.
The following year, Kim appeared on Channel 4's Celebrity Come Dine With Me with Claire Sweeney, Darren Day and Tom O'Connor.
She then appeared as a regular on Big Brother's spin-off series from 2011.
But in 2017, Kim entered Big Brother as a housemate for a special Celebrity series - finishing in third spot.
