Gemma Atkinson has paid an emotional tribute to her dad on the 20th anniversary of his death. Her father, David, died in 2002 from a heart attack when she was 17.
The Hits Radio host has previously spoken about how her dad's colleague found him hunched over his desk, struggling to breathe or move, as he was having a heart attack. Gemma told Steph's Packed Lunch in June last year that within a few days they were told her dad was OK and put it down to stress and told him to slow down.
But as they prepared for him to come, the hospital called and said David had a massive heart attack in his sleep and sadly passed away. And today, April 27, marks 20 years since his tragic death.
