Inside Linda Nolan's final days from sad fear over new symptom to sister's brave act In the final days before her passing, Linda Nolan was surrounded by her devoted siblings and was 'embraced with love and comfort', but she also had a heartbreaking fear before passing away at the age of 65.
Sadly, a bad chest infection left Linda unable to eat her Christmas dinner, or indeed get down any nutrients other than energy drinks for the next 11 days, much to the dismay of her close-knit band of surviving sisters, Anne, 74, Denise, 72, Maureen, 69, and Coleen, 59.
Christmas was singer and actress Linda's "favourite time of year", and she documented this last one in her candid column for the Mirror, which was filled with examples of her excellent sense of humour and ability to look on the bright side, even during some of the most painful times in her life.
According to Linda: "They sent me back home to rest, and she was then reassured enough to go to Coleen's New Year's party as my friend Sue and her husband Graham came round to stay.
In her final Mirror column, published January 8, Linda revealed her first meal of 2025 had been a takeaway dish of "Chicken curry with pineapple, no mushrooms", which she enjoyed with Denise and her husband, Tom Anderson.
