The heartbreaking death of Linda Nolan was shared today (January 15) after the star endured a lengthy battle with cancer. Tragically, Linda succumbed to an incurable form of the disease, which had spread to her brain, at the age of 65.
Unfortunately, Linda had been the target of death predictions in recent years, since her initial breast cancer diagnosis in 2005 – predictions that the star had been privy to.
Just weeks prior to her death, the star had a few words of defiance for those betting on her demise.
Linda Nolan’s response to ‘death predictions’
The beloved singer, received the all-clear from breast cancer in 2006 after her diagnosis a year before, but was later diagnosed with incurable secondary cancer in 2017.
This cancer eventually spread to her brain and even lead to large tumours.
Just a few weeks ago, according to Express, a user wrote to X a cruel list, naming celebrities they predicted would die in 2025.
In response to the list – which included David Coote, Max George, and Linda Nolan – Linda swiped back.
In response Linda wrote to social media: “Every New Year, I’m always on the ‘predicted celebrity death’ list.
“Guess what?? I’M STILL HERE!!” [sic]
Her fans also rallied around her and slammed the user for their “horrible” predictions, reminding them that “death can happen to anyone”.
‘Life isn’t promised to anyone’
One wrote: “Life isn’t promised to anyone. Even the horrible people who say things like that. Here’s to many more years for you yet, Linda and I hope you have a wonderful New Year xxxx.”
Another said: “You’re still rocking it too, Linda. Wishing you good health and many more happy years to come xx.”
A third added: “Oh Linda. Sending you love and hugs. Happy New Year, and keep proving ’em wrong, lass.”
The heartbreaking death of Linda was shared today by her agent, Dermot McNamara.
