Olly Murs became emotional as he read a passage Caroline Flack wrote about him before her death. The singer, 38, shared the tribute written by the late Love Island presenter for his concert tour in 2018 and 2019 while appearing on reality TV star Jamie Laing’s podcast Private Parts.
Fighting back tears, he admitted: “I’m really trying to keep it together here.” Love Island presenter Flack took her own life at the age of 40, on February 15 2020.
Reading the passage, he said: “When I met Olly for the first time it felt like I had met my soulmate. Not in a weird way, it was just like meeting someone I’d known all my life. I’ve never laughed as much as I did in 2011 when we first hosted The Xtra Factor together and that experience will always stay with me forever.”
