Dr Michael Mosley said he did not want to die "early" like his father, who lived to 74 years old, in a tragic interview given just before his death at age 67. The TV star died of natural causes last week after he went missing on the Greek island of Symi. His body was found on Sunday in a rocky area near Agia Marina beach.
Speaking at the end of April the 67-year-old revealed his healthy lifestyle was driven by watching his own father, Bill, die before seeing his grandchildren grow up. “I thought, that's not a road I want to go down,” the father of four told The Daily Telegraph. “My dad, when he retired, basically sat on the sofa and watched sport and that was incredibly bad for him.”
