Patrick Swayze's widow has spoken out about her loss for the first time since his death.

Lisa Niemi joined a roundtable discussion called Grief, Healing And Resilience in California on Tuesday.

‘When the grief takes you, it's like your body is not your own,' she said. ‘I'm just going with the flow. I know I have to go through it.'

Lisa, 53, hopes to be reunited with Dirty Dancing star Patrick, who died from pancreatic cancer on 14 September.

‘I've spent two thirds of my life with him,' she said. ‘I am so grateful for what I had and my connection to him.

'And part of me believes that I will see him again. I'm just going to have to go on until then.'
