Loose Women star Katie Piper has posted a video on Instagram where she talks about growing apart from a friend and how much she cherishes the memory of them
Loose Women’s Katie Piper has released an emotional video on social media in which she talks about a friend she has grown apart from. She doesn’t name the person she is speaking about, but it is a heartfelt speech that has affected many of her followers.
She begins by saying: “I can’t believe we’re not friends anymore,” in the video released on Tuesday 19 November. Then she says: “We were inseparable, untouchable, sisters by choice. You were my first call when things were going well, when I hit my goals, or when life let me down in ways I could have never imagined. I can’t believe we’re not friends anymore. Sometimes I’ll go to send you a message and then I’ll realise things aren’t like before.”
Many of her followers posted their own stories of broken friendships, with one writing: “Thank you for sharing. This has happened to me and I don’t think I will ever fully understand it.” Another shared: “Not everyone is for all seasons and the whole walk of your life. This was my best friend and I. 30 years and now we are strangers. But I think of her often and wish her well.”
Katie, who is mum to Belle, 10, and Penelope, six, and married to carpenter and builder Richard James Sutton, spoke exclusively to OK! earlier this year about how important the people around her are to her, alongside her career. “I just want to spend time with my loved ones, and not prioritise work over health, family and being together. If I can continue to bring things that I enjoy and care about to TV and publishing platforms and call it my job, then I’m really lucky. I don’t ever want to lose sight of that and become ungrateful, or arrogant. This was a dream for me as a younger woman and I don’t want to ever forget that.”
