“Not the news we wanted, but the news we expected
has shared some heartbreaking news about her dog this week.
The radio presenter and former soap star stated last week that her dog Ollie couldn’t see or hear, and often woke up having had an accident in the night. This week, she shared a new update on her Instagram Stories, and while she kept the specificities vague, it sounds like he might get put down soon.
“Not the news we wanted, but the news we expected with Ollie today,” she wrote. “Old age has got the better of him, and we think he’s now in pain with his legs and sores on his bottom from having so many accidents.
“The part of life where their needs have to come before your feelings is tough, especially when you love them so much.
“We’re making the most of cuddles with him for as long as possible these next few days. He’s currently snoring away none the wiser.”
In a later Story, Gemma stated that she and will have to chat with their daughter Mia, but it won’t be on Sunday due to Gorka’s Strictly commitments. “I’m dreading [it],” she wrote, “but I know it has to be done.”
