Carol caption the Twitter post: "Mothers Day 2017. Mum had been diagnosed with terminal cancer a week before.
"So I got a beautiful room in @ivycliftonbrass for all of us to celebrate her. Mum had lived with me & worked for me since the 1980s. 24/7 it was always us. She died 2 months after this photo."
Carol battled depression after her mother's death.
The loss of her beloved mum impacted her greatly, and her sorrow was made worse amid her menopause.
In a recent interview with Mail Online, Carol revealed she felt suicidal due to the effect on her mental health of the menopause.
The mum-of-two said: "I wouldn’t have done anything because I have kids and I am a single parent, but I definitely had a lot of thoughts that were in that bracket.
"I didn’t want to wake up. I wanted this blackness to stop and I couldn’t think of any way of making it stop other than just stopping."
Carol subsequently saw a menopausal depression expert who prescribed her daily bioidentical hormones to boost her oestrogen levels.
Carol's mum passed away at the age of 88 last June.
