Share:
Coleen Nolan has expressed heartbreak over the loss of her sister Linda Nolan, describing her as a “beacon of love, kindness, and strength.”. Linda, a member of the Irish family group The Nolans alongside her sisters Coleen, Maureen, Bernie, Denise, and Anne, passed away peacefully at the age of 65, surrounded by family.
Linda had battled breast cancer since her diagnosis in 2005. She was initially given the all-clear in 2011, but the cancer returned as secondary breast cancer in 2017. By 2020, it had spread further, and in 2023, it affected her brain. Coleen took to Instagram and wrote: "I am utterly devastated by the passing of my sister, Linda. Linda was a beacon of love, kindness, and strength. Her wit, humour and laughter was infectious, her presence could light up any room. Linda had a heart full of compassion and always knew how to bring comfort and joy to those around her.
“Her memory will live on in the many lives she touched, and while we will miss her more than words can express, we take solace in the love and warmth she shared with all of us. Rest in peace, Linda. You will forever be in our hearts.". Celebrities Myleene Klass, Jake Quickenden and Jo O’Meara all sent their support to Coleen and family following their loss. Nolans manager Dermot McNamara said it was “with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Linda Nolan”.
