About this listen

Simon Thomas (former Blue Peter presenter and, for so long, the face of Sky Sports Football) reveals how grief nearly destroyed him in his heartbreaking memoir. When Simon lost the woman he had loved for 16 years, the future he'd imagined for their happy family disappeared for ever. Gemma died from acute myeloid leukaemia, just three days after being diagnosed.

In Love, Interrupted, Simon is brutally honest about his journey through grief, and opens up about how close he came to ending his own life. Simon didn't know how to carry on without Gemma; he just knew that, for the sake of his eight-year old son, he had to find a way....

Love, Interrupted is a moving story of love, loss, faith and family.

Everyone needs to read/listen this book, we have all lost people we love be it suddenly or otherwise and Simon and Ethan’s story takes you through the first year of their grief without their wife and Mummy. It’s heartbreaking but also shows there is light at the end of a long dark tunnel. Beautifully written and narrated. I wish Simon and his boy Ethan every happiness in the future.

Absolutely wonderful book

Grief is sad and Simon doesn't shirk away from this, he is honest and at times funny.
I am so pleased I bought the audible version, he narrates it and so much better than just reading the words.
For me, a must read for anyone helping others on this journey and for those on the journey.

Having read about Simon and Ethan’s loss I followed him on Instagram and watched his posts throughout 2018. Through the book it was amazing to hear the wonderful stories about who Gemma was and really get a better understanding of their life together. It was so brave of Simon to share his grief process in such an unfiltered way. A fantastic read for anyone who wants to understand grief and mental health better and most importantly what you can do to help those going through that journey. I cried, I smiled, I laughed, having finished the book I am left with a lovely sense of hope. Thank you Simon for sharing your story.

A moving, honest listen
