In February 2020, Judi broke down in tears over her late mother’s dementia battle – revealing she couldn’t remember who she was.
She said: “The spirit of the person is gone and you’ve got the shell. As a carer, I can’t even explain the emotional [impact]. It’s so draining.
“I remember one time I was with my mum, she just didn’t know who I was. I went to my friends house, and I went to the kitchen and I just screamed and cried and cried.
“I can’t explain seeing someone you’ve grown with or you’ve loved and they’re gone, they’re absolutely gone.”
