Tina Malone shares late husband's final moments as she says 'I am broken'
Tina Malone revealed she has been left 'broken' and 'so bereft' as she recounted the last moments with her late husband Paul Chase. The Shameless star, who played Mimi Maguire on the hit Channel 4 show, shared the devastating news of Paul's untimely passing, at the age of 42, last month.
While the cause of death remains unconfirmed, Tina recently expressed her gratitude for the outpouring of love and support since the loss on March 13. And she has since returned to the social media to open up about the final hours she spent with Paul at their home.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, she wrote: "Four weeks ago at 4pm today my hubby made scrambled eggs,bacon,beans,sausages for flame,kissed me and said see you later…. 10 hours later he was dead, I am broken, so bereft."
Her emotional post quickly received an influx of comforting messages from fans, including one particularly touching response: "I am so sorry to read this. Ur post caught my eye and I now see he was in the military. A subject so close to my heart. I'm glad to have found u on social x stay strong.", reports the Mirror.
A second wrote: "The last thing you remember him doing was an act of love for your child together. That is something that you will treasure in time more than you can right now. I am sending so much love from Belfast [heart emoji] to you and Flame."
Another shared: "So sorry to hear this. You will always have that memory of him and never let go of that. It has been 6 years for me and still talk about him to people. Stay strong and keep the good memories alive. That is just my thoughts."
In a sombre ceremony last week, Tina said her final farewells to her husband in their hometown of Liverpool. Clad in black, Tina cut a solemn figure as she led the procession of mourners from her home, with family, friends, and members of Paul's regiment in attendance, many donning regimental ties.
The crowd, dressed in dark attire, supported Tina as she bid farewell to her beloved spouse, whom she wed in 2010.
Photos obtained by MailOnline captured the poignant moment pallbearers, believed to be from Paul's regiment and adorned with medals, carried his coffin at the funeral in the coastal city, escorting him to his last place of rest.
