Obviously knew Noel attended games but I had no idea he was this close to Geoff.
In yesterday's paper...
A widow has revealed a sweet story about how Noel Edmonds, who was booted from I’m A Celebrity on Friday night, took a terminally-ill man around Europe in his famous double-decker bus.
The presenter was said to have prolonged the dying man’s life with the gesture, with Sharon Dunford saying Noel – who suffered from prostate cancer himself – ‘leapt into action’ when Bristol Rovers chairman Geoff, then 62, was given six months to live after being diagnosed with cancer in 2013.
She said he then went on to live four more years. ‘We had her renovated and put furniture in. Upstairs was a bar and a cinema room. It was like a gentleman’s club. Noel and Geoff had an incredible bond,’ she told the Mirror of their trip around France in the bus.
She claimed before their trip, the Deal Or No Deal legend arranged for Geoff to see a ‘Harley Street specialist’ and put him on a plan of meditation, diet changes and the use of an ‘energising electro mat’, which echoed the presenter’s thoughts on wellness, as he meditated each day in the jungle. Sharon added: ‘Maybe it was that that kept him well, the positivity of knowing he felt better.’
