The former Strictly Come Dancing star shared the sad news of losing her beloved family member Sheila on social media on Thursday who she says was the 'matriarch of the family.'
Former Hollyoaks actress Gemma Atkinson has taken to social media to share the heartbreaking news that her beloved Auntie Sheila has passed away at the age of 93 as she was soon flooded with support from fans and Strictly co-stars.
"After almost 93 years her body became tired," Gemma explained in the caption. "Now at peace and reunited with Uncle Peter and many more relatives, I’m sure they’ll be having a celebration together just as we did today at her send off." "Sleep well…I’ll miss your pound coins sellotaped in my Birthday card this year, but I know you’ll check in on everyone now & again."
New host of Strictly spin-off show It Takes Two Fleur East also took to the comments to share love for the actress as she shared heart emojis.
