Mark Wright’s sister says ‘it’s broken my heart all over again’ as she opens up after devastating loss

Mark, 37, and his sister Jessica, 39, are saying their final farewells to their late grandpa Eddie, who passed away a few months after being taken to a hospital for a fall. Former The Only Way is Essex star Jessica opened up on her Instagram about the “heartbreaking” loss, which comes just a few weeks after her brother Mark announced that he would become a father.

In an emotional tribute to Eddie, 91, Jessica poured out her feelings of grief over the loss of her “hero” grandad, writing: “If only I could cuddle you]and] feel you cuddle me back so tight again. My heart has been broken once more by losing my grandpa.

There was no denying that you would become my best friend from the moment I met you. If you look up the words ‘ legend ‘]and] ‘ hero ‘ in the dictionary, it would say Grandad Eddie &amp, everyone knew it which makes me immensely proud”. They simply do not make them like you any more, according to Jessica, which is true. Your kindness, generosity, caring ways with your beautiful smile, and undeniable love for your family will live with on forever. You completely redefine masculinity.

In the moving post, Jessica also paid tribute to the special memories she and her grandpa Eddie shared as a child. Thank you for letting me spend every night watching Only Fools and Horses reruns with you when I was a young girl without fail and for which I am grateful. Thank you for assisting me in writing a letter to the BBC asking for David Jason, which we never received, and because I will treasure it forever, just like you did in our memory box.

You are still laughing at the jokes I only told you at night and every day as a result of fireman’s daily transportation up and down the stairs. Taking me to school every day, picking me up, and actually getting me in on time, which shocked everyone. Also, throwing water in my face when I wouldn’t wake up.

Jessica’s personal life is well known by her fans – particularly those who watched her on TOWIE for six years – and she married William Lee-Kemp, a businessman, in 2021, and she noted in her tribute to her grandfather that when he gave her away in the couple’s English wedding, it” really did mean the world to me”.

Last summer, Eddie had a sudden fall, which led to him being rushed to the hospital. This was revealed by Jessica and Mark Wright ‘ s father, Mark Wright Senior, in a moving Father’s Day post at the time.

Just one week after TV personality Mark Wright revealed that he is expecting his first child with his wife Michelle Keegan, the Wrights’ massive loss, the media is informed of the Wright family’s devastating loss.
