Actor Paul Sorvino stars in 'Goodfellas'
The final days of Goodfellas star Paul Sorvino were shared on social media in a number of heartbreaking posts.
The actor passed away aged 83 and his wife Dee Dee had documented some good times that they shared earlier this month.
It would seem that Paul was able to enjoy the high life with Dee Dee hashtagging the pics stating that they are a 'happy couple'.
Just two weeks ago, Dee Dee wrote on Twitter to her 5,000 followers: "Happy Tuesday”
She posted a sweet photo of her with Paul which she added the caption: "#happycouple”
Five days later, on July 17, Dee Dee shared a snap of Paul tucking into some ice cream, which seemed to be in a worthy cause at the time.

“Paul loves ice cream. He will have some about once a day, it’s maybe once a year for me. Enjoy!”
The day before announcing his death, Dee Dee shared on July 24 that Paul had been celebrating another national day.
This time it was in recognition of tequila and Paul was seen holding a glass of the spirit while holding his wife's hand.

After the joyous posts, Paul's wife then confirmed on social media, the sad news that he had passed away.
She said: "Our hearts are broken, there will never be another Paul Sorvino, he was the love of my life, and one of the greatest performers to ever grace the screen and stage."
