Dave Myers' stepson got engaged six months after his death, a star he was proud to call his dad.

It is with great sadness that we share the news of Dave Myers' passing. The beloved TV chef, best known as one half of the acclaimed Hairy Bikers duo, lost his battle with cancer in February of this year. His co-star and dear friend Si King took to social media to share the heartbreaking update, leaving fans and friends in shock and mourning.

The Barrow-in-Furness-born chef had first revealed his diagnosis in May of 2022, but never disclosed the type of cancer he was fighting. He is survived by his loving wife Liliana Orzac, whom he met in 2005, seven years after losing his fiance Glen Howarth to stomach cancer. The couple tied the knot in 2011, with Si as Dave's best man. Dave is also survived by his two step-children, Iza and Sergiu, who have been a source of joy and support for him.

In his statement on Instagram, Si shared the heartbreaking news of Dave's passing, stating that he had been fighting cancer for the past couple of years. He passed away peacefully at home on the 28th of February 2024, surrounded by his family, close friend David, and Si himself. It was a devastating loss for all who knew and loved him.

Despite the grief and sadness, there is a glimmer of hope and happiness for the family. Stepson Sergiu recently got engaged to his partner, bringing some much-needed positivity into their lives. According to reports, Sergiu shared a lovely photo on his Instagram of himself and his fiance, wearing motorcycle helmets, a nod to Dave's love for biking.

Dave and Si's friendship goes way back to the 1990s when they met over a curry while both working in television production. They shared a passion for food and motorcycles, and their chemistry on screen was undeniable. For over 20 years, they entertained and inspired audiences with their culinary adventures on various BBC shows, earning them the nickname "Hairy Bikers."

Their unique blend of food, travel, and charisma made them one of the most beloved TV double acts in the UK. The news of Dave's passing has left a void in the hearts of fans and colleagues alike.
