Each year, actor Jason Watkins and his wife Clara Francis take a memorable walk through London's Hampstead Heath to commemorate the memory of their late two-year-old daughter. Within the park grounds lies a bench in memory of Jason's daughter Maude who tragically passed away from sepsis 12 years ago on New Year's Day, the Mirror reports.
This year to mark the poignant day, Jason also shared an image of his beloved daughter on Twitter which he captioned: “Each anniversary hurts. Each year so different. Another year, without our Maude. Our time together can feel like a dream, cruel, just out of reach.
“But look closely, she is smiling. She brought joy – and if we are brave enough, she still does.” The actor's heartfelt social media post was viewed over one million times as the Crown Star reveals his main reason for sharing it is to help himself and his wife, as well as other grieving parents to cope with their loss.
