Mollie King, who was part of The Saturdays, has opened up about her trauma after losing her dad Stephen to a brain tumour 10 days after welcoming daughter Annabella

Mollie King says she never knew how strong she was until she went through two life-changing experiences in the space of two weeks.

Mollie, 36, tells Women’s Health UK: “My dad was the healthiest person I knew. He was really athletic; he’d run three marathons and he was still super strong. To then find out half-way through my pregnancy that he had a brain tumour and that we didn’t have long with him was such a shock. I think is just be kind to yourself; you never know what’s around the corner.

Ex-Saturdays singer Mollie is engaged to former England cricketer Stuart Broad, who popped the question on New Year’s Day in 2021. The pair first dated in 2012 but called things off in 2013 when their careers took priority. But their relationship then got back on track in 2019 and they have been inseparable since. A wedding is on the cards soon, with Stuart, 37, saying in December he has more time to plan their big day now since he retired from cricket at the end of the Ashes last year.

“I’m a big overthinker and I can be a little bit of a worrier, whereas Stuart is not an overthinker. Stuart’s like: ‘Right, this is what I’m going to do and this is how I’m going to do it.’ He’s always telling me that I need to do mind maps when my mind goes into a bit of an anxiety spin. He’s very protective and he’s really good at looking after me.”
