Echoing the sentiment, Kate responded earnestly: “Yeah, definitely, I think that this campaign speaks volumes to me. Anything I can do in the mental health department to help anybody, I feel like I now want to be able to help people feel less alone and get through grief and healing. So, anything I can really do to provide that, I definitely want to be able to.” Kate picked up on the meaningful link between the campaign and her own life, with Lorraine highlighting the campaign’s name which profoundly struck a chord with Kate, reports Bristol Live.

She reflected: “Yeah, that’s actually the first thing that I noticed when I first read into the campaign. It’s called March, and the first thing I was drawn to was the number four. “For people that aren’t too familiar with the number four, it’s mine and Liam’s angel number, which symbolises support and guidance from your angels. I genuinely believe Liam, in a way, guided me to this campaign and wanted me to be involved in this and help other people. “It’s something he would’ve wanted me to do. It’s still so special. I see it (the number four) so often, and it’s going to be something that’s going to be involved in my life forever, and every time I see the number four, I know he’s there with me.”

Lorraine empathised with her guest as she spoke about the comfort she finds in the number four, which she sees as a sign of support and guidance from her late partner Liam. During their heartfelt conversation, Kate was visibly moved as she discussed the immense loss she’s faced. Kate opened up about her grief, confessing that losing Liam was her first experience of such a profound loss. She shared how his memory lives on not just for her but for all who loved him. Fighting back tears, Kate expressed her enduring affection, she commented: “I’ll always have so much love for him. He was really one of a kind, and he was the definition of he would light up any room he walked into. “He had this sense of humour where he just really could make anything better. His presence was just comforting and warming, that’s something that I’ll never forget about him, ever.” Lorraine continues weekdays on ITV from 9am.
