'We're Still Our Healing Broken Hearts'
She was the Home And Away darling who stole Australia’s heart with her beautiful smile and fighting spirit. And now, 10 years after her death, the family of Belinda Emmett continue to mourn her sad passing every day with emotional tributes on social media.
In an exclusive interview with New Idea, the beloved actress’ parents have opened up about life after Belinda and how they’re still in touch with her TV star widower Rove McManus.
Rove, 43, married Belinda in a fairytale ceremony in 2005, while she was battling terminal breast cancer – more than a year before her death.
But the TV host has stayed in contact with Belinda’s parents, who have developed a special bond with Rove’s daughter Ruby, three, from his second marriage, to 43-year-old actress Tasma Walton.
‘Rove’s got his own wife and we respect that, but we stay close,’ says Belinda’s father Michael, who adds that he’s met Ruby. ‘It’s nice to have the little ones around. We’ve got our own grandchildren and they’ve all grown. The oldest is at university, and you do miss those little children. So it’s lovely to have [Ruby] in our lives as well. It’s not in a huge way, but it’s pretty wonderful.’
