Dave Myers' companies were worth a seven-figure sum when he died last month aged 66, according to the latest Companies House statements

The 'Hairy Bikers' star died "peacefully at home" last week, two years after revealing he had been diagnosed with cancer.

It has now been revealed his production company Sharpletter, which the late star owned with his wife Liliana Orzac, had £1,407,338 in the bank, according to the latest Companies House statements.

According to The Sun newspaper, that is an increase of £200,000 on the previous 12 months.

The publication has also revealed Companies House documents show an organisation owned by Dave and his good friend and fellow Hairy Biker Si King was worth nearly £100,000.

Si announced Dave's passing last week, and led tributes to his late co-star.

In a post on X, Si wrote: "Hi everyone, I’m afraid I bear some sad news. Most of you will know Dave has been fighting cancer for the past couple of years. Last night, on 28th February 2024, with Lili, Dave’s wife, his family, close friend David and myself by his side, he passed away peacefully at home. All who knew Dave are devastated at his passing. His beloved wife brought him such happiness as did her children, Iza and Sergiu who Dave loved like his own.

"Personally, I am not sure I can put into words on how I feel at the moment. My best friend is on a journey that for now, I can’t follow. I will miss him every day and the bond and friendship we shared over half a lifetime. I wish you god’s speed brother; you are and will remain a beacon in this world. See you on the other side. Love ya. (sic)"

Bearded celebrity cooks Dave and Si were well known as the Hairy Bikers.

They have presented numerous motorcycling travelogues together, in which they would travel around the UK, and further afield, on motorbikes and stop off to sample some local delicacies, as well as cook up some tasty treats themselves.

Dave never disclosed which type of cancer he had, and admitted that was a deliberate move.

He only reluctantly went public with his diagnosis because of the impact of his treatment.
