This Morning star Matty Lock was remembered fondly after his untimely passing earlier this week. Just 19 years old, Lock was a member of the Labour Party in Sefton and Merseyside, a town councillor in Maghull, and a parish councillor in Lydiate. He was also known for his appearances on the ITV breakfast programme, which began when he was just two, and saw him review and share his love of vacuum cleaners.
Lock’s last social media post before his death, however, highlighted his commitment to his community. In it, he was seen cleaning up the local area with a colleague, wearing a high-vis pink vest and smiling alongside them. He captioned the post: “Great work by Cllr Ken Hughes clearing the subway today, we have washed the walls and cut the hedges.”
Back in 2018, Lock had sold around 300 vacuum cleaners to cleaning companies, private homeowners, and even his teachers. His love of the machines began when he was just two, and his appearances on This Morning saw him share his enthusiasm with viewers.
After the news of his passing was announced, Holly Willoughby and Dermot O’Leary paid an emotional tribute on Monday’s episode, with Willoughby saying: “He was a much-loved member of our team who never failed to bring joy and warmth to our studio, with an infectious passion for gadgets and technology, it was truly unique.”
Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner also shared condolences, writing: “Incredibly sad news, Matty did so much for his community. My love and prayers are with his friends and family.”
The world is mourning the loss of Matty Lock, who brought smiles and laughter to so many with his appearances on This Morning and his commitment to his community. He will be remembered fondly.
