Sunday Brunch host Tim Lovejoy – death of his brother
Back in 2004, Tim, 56, lost his older brother, James, to cancer.
James was just 37 when he died following a battle with pancreatic cancer. His death came months after his diagnosis, which had previously been misdiagnosed as irritable bowel syndrome.
Tim previously opened up about his brother’s death during an appearance on the Marie Curie podcast in 2020.
“You know, I wish I could have had conversations with him about death, if I’m honest with you, though it happened so quickly at the end that there was never an opportunity to do that,” he said.
Speaking of the moment his brother passed, he said: “It was absolutely incredible and numbing. No one knew what to do. It was mixed emotions.
“You have anger – it was anger towards why this had happened to my brother and there’s a myriad of emotions that hit you. You don’t know what to do. No one knows what to do.”
