First Time Dads

What happens when mummy dies? Widowed dad reveals the challenges of raising his little girl after losing his wife


Listen Later

It's one of every young father's worst nightmares: losing the mother of your child.
Mark Duffy lost his wife Nicola to cancer last year and has been writing a blog - thewidoweddaddydiaries.com - about raising his daughter Grace while dealing with his grief.

So, when the worst happens and mummy dies, what does life for a now one-parent family look like? How do you continue to function? And how does your relationship with your child change?

In this podcast, Mark tries to answer all those questions, while explaining to Rich and Steve how his amazing three year-old daughter has become the glue which has held an entire family together. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
