Kimberley Kitching’s close friend Bill Shorten fought back tears as he paid tribute to the 52-year-old Labor senator after she died of a suspected heart attack.

It’s understood she had been feeling unwell between meetings and pulled over while driving to call her husband Andrew Landeryou.Former Labor leader Mr Shorten and his wife, who were “great friends” with Senator Kitching and her husband and had known her for decades were among the first to be told of her death.

Mr Shorten told ABC Radio through tears that Senator Kitching had been under “immense stress”, which he believes contributed to her death. “The Labor family is in shock tonight at the tragic news that our friend and colleague Senator Kimberley Kitching has died suddenly in Melbourne,” Mr Albanese posted to social media.Prime Minister Scott Morrison also offered his condolences, saying Senator Kitching’s passion for Australia was always greater than any “partisan views”.Senator Kimberley Kitching has died aged 52.

She also held a strong position on Israel, defending criticism on human rights abuses and acting as deputy chair of Parliamentary Friends of Israel. “Dreadful, devastating news about the thoughtful, kind and resolute patriot Senator Kimberley Kitching,” Liberal senator Andrew Bragg said.
