The Bachelorette star Georgia Love has opened up about how the recent death of her beloved mother Belinda has affected her new romance with boyfriend Lee Elliot.
“It’s made our relationship really hard,” she told The Daily Telegraph.
“He’s the one that has to cop it when I’m having a bad day. He’s the one who’s there as I break down.”
After six-month battle with pancreatic cancer, the 60-year-old tragically succumbed to the disease just one night after the couple went public with their love in the show’s finale.
But throughout her heartbreak, Georgia confesses that the 36-year-old mechanical plumber has been “nothing but incredible.”
“He was there every step of the way. Nothing will ever take that away. That’s something that makes me even more in love with him. In so many ways it brought us very close.”
Georgia took to Instagram in October last year to share the news of Belinda’s passing with fans.
“My heart is utterly broken,” she wrote alongside a collage of the mother-daughter duo.
