‘Christmas in London, definitely a headache I could do without.’

It comes after Dean was left heartbroken by the death of his mother earlier this year.

The former soap star paid an emotional tribute to his parent on Instagram after she tragically passed away in August.

Dean shared a photo of her funeral orders on social media in September and said he would “miss and love” her forever.

He wrote: ‘Gone but NEVER forgotten… Sunrise: 12/23/53. Sunset: 13/08/23. I miss and love you mom, today, tomorrow and forever. X.’

Dean announced the news via Instagram after finding his mother ‘asleep’ in August, but no cause of death has been given.

Alongside a photo of himself and his mother, he wrote: ‘I’m just heartbroken to share that my beautiful selfless mother Marian has sadly passed away.

“I was, am and always will be a mama’s boy, so this news has completely shocked me.

‘I spoke to her every day and in a way I’m glad I was the one who found her sleeping.

Dean continued, “I will cherish all the wonderful memories we shared and while I understand that the circle of life means that everyone will feel this pain at some point in their lives, life can be very cruel sometimes.

“To know that I will never be able to physically see or speak to her again is beyond any pain I have ever experienced in my life.

‘We all tell our parents and loved ones at the end of a phone call that we love them light-heartedly, but please tell them that you really, really love them… put that phone down when you’re with them because the only My mother’s criticism of me was that I was on my phone when I was in her company.

Brave Groom Who Lost 10 Of His Wedding Party In A Tragic Bus Crash Gives A Powerful Speech At His Mate’s Funeral

  • Groom in bus accident at wedding speaks at partner’s funeral
  • Mitchell Gaffney remembered his friend, Zach Bray, as a likeable larrikin

The groom who lost 10 of his wedding guests in the Hunter Valley bus crash last month has spoken boldly at the funeral of one of his fallen friends.

Mitchell Gaffney remembered his mate Zachary Bray, 29, as a “loving larrikin” as he addressed mourners at Macquarie Park cemetery and crematorium in North Sydney on Tuesday.

Both Mr. Bray and Mr. Gaffney played for the same AFL club, the Singleton Roosters, and became friends on and off the field.

Mr Bray was one of 10 people who died when a bus carrying 35 guests from Mr Gaffney and Madeleine Edsell’s wedding rolled near Greta on June 11.

His funeral is the second to last of the 10 victims, with many of the mourners traveling to Singleton next week to honor mother and daughter, Nadine and Kyah McBride.

“While you’ll never get a chance to put on the jersey again, you’ll always be by our side,” Mr Gaffney said.

The teammates of Mr. Bray also paid tribute to the enthusiastic AFL player and other club members lost in the crash with a community run on Saturday.

Local players wore black armbands during their matches to honor the 10 victims.

Remembered as a fighter, Mrs. Bray had conquered cancer by the age of 25 and had become a staunch advocate for charitable causes.

He was also in a loving relationship at the time of his death, with his girlfriend Georgie Copeland saying, “My heart hurts and I can’t deny it.”

“I know it hurts deeply because it was deeply real.”

His mother, Jacqui Varasdi, said raising Mr. Bray was her greatest achievement.

“Seeing you lying here in this box just doesn’t make sense.”

An avid pilot, Mr. Bray’s father, Adam, simply memorialized him with “over and out, rest in peace my beautiful boy.”

Adam recently told 9News that he was stopped by the police when he tried to walk up the embankment towards the bus, which was still on its side, looking for his son.

“I just said, ‘My son is on that bus,’ and they said to me, ‘If your son is on that bus, you really don’t want to see him.'”

“I sat on the floor by myself and broke down for an hour.”

The bus driver at the center of the accident, 58-year-old Brett Andrew Button, was released on bail on June 13 after being charged with 10 counts of dangerous driving resulting in death.

He will appear in Newcastle District Court on August 9.

Ms Liddy told mourners how she was ‘incredibly heartbroken’ at the loss of Angus who was ‘warm and thoughtful, ready for any adventure however wayward and loved to dance’.

“It breaks my heart that our time together was so short that he hadn’t even memorized his new zip code,” she said.

It didn’t take me long to fall in love with the smart, thoughtful, and generous person he was.

“I know I am a better person because I have loved and been loved by you.

Angus was one of four men and six women killed in the Hunter Valley bus accident, the remaining passengers sustained injuries of varying degrees.

They had all been guests at Mitchell Gaffney and Maddy Edsell’s wedding at Wandin Wine Estate south of Singleton, NSW on June 11.
