Gosh, this is so incredibly sad.
They were my favourite pair ever, you could feel the genuine love and affection they held for each other. Jo had such a warm heart and a beautiful smile.
She lost Sam, her adopted son last year and now she's passed away from cancer.

I hope, wherever they both are, they have each other.

I just saw this. How dreadfully sad. They were lovely on the show.

Just saw this. Really sad, especially after Sam’s tragic death last year.
I really liked them on RATW.
