Throwback: Kate Everett lost her daughter Dolly to suicide


Listen Later

This week, we're throwing back to one of our most downloaded episodes, episode 100.  In 2018 Kate Everett's beautiful daughter Amy, affectionately known as Dolly, made headlines for all the wrong reasons. After being relentlessly bullied at boarding school and online, Dolly took her own life. She was just 14 years old. There aren't many people in Australia who didn't hear or read about Dolly's death. But what about her mum? What about the woman who loved her, raised her and mourned her? In this 1 hour special episode, Dolly's Mum Kate shares her story. You'll hear about her station life in the Northern Territory, her journey into motherhood raising her two girls, and the inconceivable grief of losing Dolly to suicide. This is her story.
