EXCLUSIVE: The tragic death ofGok Wan's best friend to cancer has made him rethink a lot in life, as he opens up to OK! about grief, turning 50 and his huge new radio gig
Chatting to Gok Wan , it’s not hard to see why he’s one of our most beloved TV personalities. The fashion guru, DJ and presenter, 50, wears his heart on his sleeve – and whether it’s a fun anecdote or a sad story, you know he’ll speak from the heart. This time, the subject is a tough one. In May, Gok lost his best friend, Allison Gordon Parry, who had lived with stage 4 breast cancer for many years.
As he talks about it, he wipes away a tear and apologises for being “so bloody emotional”. But it’s testament to the special bond between two people who adored each other. Gok admits he’s so angry that cancer took Ali before her time. Now he’s turning his heartache into a positive with the upcoming release of charity single Deeper Love , with all profits going to Macmillan Cancer Support.
Gok Wan and House Gospel Choir Deeper Love is out 13 December. Pre-order from gokwan.lnk.to/ DeeperLove, raising funds for Macmillian. See macmillan.org.uk
