Alex Beresford has expressed his sorrow that he hasn't been able to be with his mum on the day his step grandmother died alone.
The 39-year-old Good Morning Britain weatherman posted the heartbreaking news on Twitter and explained that due to the coronavirus lockdown, he felt "trapped and powerless".
He explained that he hasn't been able to comfort his mum and stepfather on the sad day for his family. Taking to Twitter, Alex wrote: "My lovely step grandmother died on her own tonight!
I can’t even go to my mums to hug her or my stepdad. "They also can’t leave the house because they are vulnerable and I doubt they would let us in to pay our respects.
