”Simon is absolutely devastated. His mum was the most beloved person in his life and they were incredibly close. ”But at least she got to see him settle down and start a family which was one of the great wishes of her life. Julie had been unwell for some time and she was in a home.
But Simon and his brothers were in constant contact with her and the family remained very close. ”They had been paying regular visits to her bedside and it’s been a God send that Simon hadn’t had to do too much work in the US over the last year.
