“It’s a weird thing to be going through at thirty-something. Someone two weeks older than you can just be… here today, gone tomorrow.”
He went on to say that he chose not to look at the news after initially hearing that Liam had passed away.
“I can’t be worrying about what they’re going to say next because I’d my own grief to deal with,” he confessed.
