Chloe Lattanzi Opens Up About Olivia Newton-John’s Death in Emotional Loose Women Interview
LONDON, UK – In an interview that left viewers deeply moved, Chloe Lattanzi, daughter of the late Olivia Newton-John, opened her heart on ITV’s daytime show Loose Women, sharing raw emotions about her mother’s passing and the struggle of navigating life without her. The candid conversation offered fans a rare and intimate look into the grief that follows the loss of one of music’s brightest stars.
Olivia Newton-John, beloved worldwide for her iconic role as Sandy in Grease and her glittering music career, passed away in August 2022 at the age of 73 after a decades-long battle with breast cancer. Her death sent shockwaves across the globe, with tributes pouring in from fans, fellow musicians, and world leaders alike. But for Chloe, the loss was not of an icon, but of her mother, her confidante, and her best friend.
During the Loose Women segment, Chloe admitted that the months since Olivia’s death had been some of the hardest of her life. “It still doesn’t feel real sometimes,” she confessed, her voice breaking. “I wake up and for a moment I think I’ll hear her voice or see her walking into the room. Then I remember she’s gone, and the grief just washes over me again.”
Chloe spoke about her mother’s final days, recalling how Olivia faced the end with the same grace, courage, and kindness that defined her life. “She was still smiling, still worrying about everyone else being okay. That was who she was—always putting others first,” Chloe said. She described sitting by her mother’s side, holding her hand, and promising to carry on her legacy of compassion, music, and advocacy for cancer research.
What struck viewers most was Chloe’s honesty about the complexity of grief. She admitted that some days are overwhelming, while on others she finds comfort in the countless messages of love and support from fans around the world. “It means so much to know how deeply she touched people,” she said. “Sometimes I read their stories and it feels like she’s still here, alive in their hearts.”
The Loose Women panel praised Chloe’s bravery in speaking out, acknowledging that sharing her grief so openly might help others going through similar losses. Fans quickly took to social media to express their admiration, with one writing, “Chloe’s strength is her mother’s strength shining through. Olivia would be so proud.”
Chloe ended the interview by reflecting on the lessons her mother left behind. “Mum taught me to be kind, to give more than you take, and to always find joy—even in the darkest times. That’s how I keep her with me. I sing her songs, I laugh at her jokes, and I try to live the way she did.”
For millions who adored Olivia Newton-John, Chloe’s words were a poignant reminder that while the world lost a star, Chloe lost her mother. And through her courage and openness, fans were able to share in both the sorrow and the enduring love that continues to bind them.
