See ya, see ya later SUZY'S SADDEST FAREWELL

While Suzy Cato always looks forward to her summer break, this year’s holiday will be particularly special as the beloved children’s entertainer tries to soak up as much time as possible with her daughter Riley before she sets off on her big OE in the new year.

“There have been buckets of tears, but I’m also really excited about it,” admits Suzy.

And while she can’t talk about her daughter leaving home without shedding a tear or two, she is comforted by the fact that Riley, 17, has included her in all the planning and she’ll even be joining her daughter for part of the trip.

“She’s starting with some friends in Asia, then she’s going to have a few months in Australia and then she’s Europe bound,” tells the iconic TV star. “I’m joining her for a couple of days in Singapore. We’ve got bands that we love as a family and she got excited, saying, ‘If I find out they’re playing in the UK, you guys could come over and spend some time with me.’ I’m thrilled to have that kind of relationship with my children.”

While she knows her son Morgan, 15, will miss his sister, Suzy says he’s already eyeing up her room to use as a music studio. He has assured Suzy, however, that she won’t have to say “see ya, see ya later” to him any time soon.
