George Gilbey's mother, Linda McGarry, recently opened up about her son's tragic passing and shared his last words to her before his death. The Gogglebox star was laid to rest last week after a shocking accident at work, where he fell 80ft from a rooftop in Shoebury, Southend-on-Sea. Linda revealed that her son's final words to her were "I love you", a sentiment that she will always cherish.
According to reports, George was working as an electrician on the day of the accident. He was on a roof when he fell through a plastic skylight and tragically passed away at the scene. The coroner's officer confirmed that his injuries were consistent with a fall from a significant height, and the post-mortem examination also supported this.
Linda, who also appeared on Gogglebox alongside her son, described George as an honorable and loving son. "It was an honor for him to be my son," she said. "We had a blast for 40 years." She also shared that George had called her at 9:30 am on the morning of his death, asking for his breakfast money. Linda fondly remembered putting £30 in his account so he could buy food and how he seemed perfectly fine at the time.
The grieving mother also revealed that George had a drink the night before, as he usually did, but he was happy to be working. He ended the phone call with his usual "I love you", a phrase that Linda now treasures. She explained that George was trying to earn money to move to London and be closer to his 8-year-old daughter, Amelie.
Sadly, Linda has also recently lost her husband and George's stepfather, Pete McGarry, to cancer. She shared that nothing can bring her son back, and she is trying her best to cope with the loss. "I just have to go with it," she said. The family is devastated by their double loss, but they are finding comfort in each other and the memories they have of George.
George's death has also deeply affected the Gogglebox family. In a statement, the show's spokesperson expressed their condolences and asked for privacy for Linda and George's loved ones during this difficult time. The family is still grappling with the loss, and they are taking things one day at a time.
In the meantime, an investigation is ongoing, and a man has been arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. However, he has been released under investigation as the authorities continue their inquiries. If you have any information that could help with the investigation, please reach out to the appropriate authorities.
