In a wide-ranging interview, Gloria discusses the loss of her daughter, Caron, from breast cancer 20 years ago, and how Caron spent her final years in the sunshine, in Australia. Plus, she reflects on the death of her husband, Steven, in August last year. 

Gloria also discusses her pre-diabetes, her diagnosis, and how she’s learned to handle the condition.

👉 Plus, there are now 4.6 million people in the UK with a diagnosis of diabetes, up from 4.4 million from last year and an all-time high. Dr Hilary hears from Colette Marshall, Chief Executive of Diabetes UK.
