Singer Lulu was overcome with emotion when she talked about her mum and dad dying in a new interview, explaining it was really hard because they died close to each other. Speaking to Gyles Brandreth on his podcast, Rosebud, Lulu, 75, shared how her mum and dad didn't always get along but they still loved each other. She said: "They loved each other because ultimately, they stayed together, which sounds crazy because today it wouldn't happen.
My mother died first, she was in her late 70s, and she died of cancer.
Then my father died two years later, I would say of a broken heart." Lulu's voice got shaky as she continued: "I can't believe I still have tears about this but it's deep, it runs deep." She detailed how her dad drank too much alcohol and sometimes acted in ways that were hard to predict. The singer shared with Gyles: "There was a lot of singing, there wasn't a lot of money, but music is joyful. My father had a voice like Pavarotti, it was big and powerful, and he sang from his heart and soul.
I feel that it is important for me to share what went on in my childhood because I always felt in the past that people would look down on me and my parents, and I didn't want that because I love them. "Now, I know that none of it was their fault, their behaviours were the life they had landed in.
There was a lot of fun, and my parents loved me. No matter what went on, I felt their love." Lulu has talked before about "difficulties" with her dad, saying they "dealt with them in order to survive".
