Soap actor is grieving for his partner Sara
Tuesday, 10 March 2009
Coronation Street star Bill Roache has spoken of his heartache following his wife Sara’s death.
The 58-year-old collapsed while sitting on their bed at their Cheshire home on 8 February.
Paramedics rushed her to hospital, but she never made it to intensive care.
‘A nurse held my hand. Then I went in to see Sara,’ Bill recalls.
‘She seemed wonderfully serene – I knew her spirit had gone from her body.
'I laid my hands on hers. I said, “Go on, love” and I took my last look at Sara, my perfect wife.’
Bill, 76, who plays Ken Barlow in the soap, returned to work two weeks ago.
On his third day back he sobbed in his dressing room after filming six scenes, which involved his character's latest romance.
He has vowed never to remarry because it wouldn't match the love he and Sara had for each other.
‘I still feel so lost,’ he tells the Sunday Mirror. ‘She was perfection to me.’
Bill and Sara were married for 35 years. They have children Will, 23, and Verity, 27.
