Privacy NoticeLoose Women took a moment on Thursday’s show to pay a heartfelt tribute to Gloria Hunniford, who tragically lost her husband Stephen Way. Stephen, a well-known celebrity hairdresser, died on Tuesday after a “heroic fight” with an illness, his family revealed. After introducing the upcoming segments of the show, Kaye Adams paused to talk about their dear friend and colleague, Gloria. She started by saying: “We couldn’t go any further without sending all of our love and blessed wishes to Gloria and all of her family. “I think you might be aware that her husband Stephen has passed away. In a statement, Gloria said Stephen had been ‘heroically fighting his illness, but always with great tenacity and spirit. We had a tremendously happy 25 marriage and did so many beautiful and exciting things together that I will always cherish’,” reports the Mirror.

As the studio audience applauded, Denise Welch added: “We want you to know, Gloria, that we have you in our hearts and we know you will be surrounded by so much love because you have a wonderful family. We all loved Stephen and we love you very much.” Speaking of her loss on Wednesday, Gloria said: “Stephen was a gentleman and a giant of a man, who will leave the most enormous void not only in my life but our entire family. “He was an incredibly kind, generous, and caring man, with a delightfully quirky sense of humour, which remained till the end. We had a tremendously happy 25-year marriage and did so many beautiful and exciting things together that I will always cherish.” She added: “It’s a great shock and words cannot express my sadness at this time. A bright shining light has dimmed, and he shall be missed at every turn.”

Gloria and Stephen exchanged wedding vows at St Peter’s Church in Kent in 1998 – and last year, the couple returned to the same spot to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. Gloria told Hello Magazine at the time: “I can remember walking into the church, filled with family and friends, and the candles all lit – it was wonderful. We’ve often said we would love to live it all over again. “Of course, there is physical attraction, but our relationship is full of kindness and humour. We enjoy talking to each other. Talk, talk, talk – that is a wonderful thing.” Loose Women airs weekdays at 12.30pm on ITV.Story SavedYou can find this story in My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
