Brenda Edwards has shared a heartbreaking tribute to late son Jamal on her first Mother's Day without him.
The Loose Women star, 53, was left devastated last month after her son and music pioneer and entrepreneur Jamal died aged just 31.
He was the founder of the online urban music platform SB.TV and his work in the music industry led him to become friends with several celebs - including Ed Sheeran, Will.i.am, Professor Green and Rio Ferdinand.
Taking to Instagram today on what must have been an incredibly difficult day for Brenda, she shared a montage of photos of herself and children Jamal and Tanisha.
Brenda captioned the post with a blue heart emoji and wrote: "Always and Forever."
Co-star Judi Love responded to her post, writing: "Thinking of you today my sweetie."
While Nadia Sawalha wrote: "Sending love xx."
Coleen Nolan also commented: "Love you."
A number of other showbiz stars, including Alexandra Burke, Duncan James and Sarah Jane Crawford, left heart emojis underneath the post.
Following Jamal's death in February, Brenda penned a statement and shared it with Good Morning Britain, which was read out live on air by Susanna Reid.
"It is with the deepest heartache that I confirm that my beautiful son Jamal Edwards passed away yesterday morning after a sudden illness. Myself, his sister Tanish and the rest of his family and friends are completely devastated. He was the centre of our world," she shared.
She continued: "As we come to terms with his passing, we ask for privacy to grieve this unimaginable loss. I would like to thank everyone for their messages of love and support.
"Jamal was an inspiration to myself and so many. Our love for him lives on, his legacy lives on. Long live Jamal Edwards MBE, MBA, PHD."
A string of Brenda's Loose Women stars paid tribute to Jamal and vowed to support her, with Denise Welch writing: "My heart aches for my friend Brenda. I can’t bear it. Jamal Edwards was a wonderful son and brother [sad face emojis]."
Charlene White shared: "Your light shone so brightly that it touched so many of us, impacted the lives of many more, and changed the game forever. And, you are my Brenda’s son. There are no words to describe her heartbreak, our heartbreak, now that your light has gone. Sometimes life is terribly unfair."
"I have just heard the heartbreaking news that @jamaledwards has died," Saira Khan penned, "I am devastated for @brendaedwardsglobal and send her and her whole family my prayers and deepest sympathies. I met @jamaledwards whilst filming a children's show and was struck by his humility and passion to help kids to believe in their talents."
