Jill Halfpenny also spoke about the loss of her father Colin, who also died from a heart attack when she was only four years old.The beloved actress appeared on Lorraine Kelly's morning show where she discussed how she's using her personal experiences with grief to help others going through similar pain by writing a powerful new book.
During their chat about the book, Lorraine commented: "I read it all in and it is absolutely extraordinary. It's obviously your story and you were honest about it but it is also just filled with really good advice.
Going back you were just a baby when your dad died." Jill candidly responded: "Yes I was four. It was in 1979 and we were in the North West of England and my mum was left with three girls to bring up on her own.
We just got on with it." She further shared insights into past attitudes towards dealing with grief, saying: "It was kind of thought of back then that if we don't mention it then it will be easier and if we don't bring it up it won't upset people but it's different now, we talk about things.", as reported by the Mirror.
