MARRIAGE OF SAMANTHA WOMACK

Her marriage to partner Mark was in 2009. Reports at the time suggested the evening reception at the posh Claridges hotel in Mayfair, central London, turned sour with security having to intervene in some drunken behavior.

Her father’s drunken behavior at his wedding three months earlier hurt her so much that she did not return his calls afterwards.

Samantha says, “You can never agree to a suicide… You don’t know if you could have done anything to prevent it.

“My dad left three messages on my phone after my wedding saying ‘Call me’ and I didn’t because he had behaved badly at my wedding.

‘He was drunk. The demons had already taken root.

“I remember seeing it and being like, ‘Something’s wrong. “I avoided him because I was scared. Something was wrong in the eyes.

Loading… Loading…

“If he had had a drink, he sometimes had this kind of look that was not like him. He was a sweet, kind guy, but there was something…anger inside.

Samantha says: ‘He had misbehaved and it was my wedding day and even though I understood he was in a dark place I was hurt.

“And so for the first time, I was like, ‘No, I’m going to draw a line here until he calls me sober or changes his behavior. “And I paid the ultimate price.

“You will always blame yourself. But it’s been long enough now that I can look at his picture and can now smile.

‘So now I have a sense of peace with him, it took me a while to get there.’
