Gloria Hunniford: My Life - The Autobiography

By: Gloria Hunniford

As one of Britain's best known TV and radio personalities, Gloria Hunniford requires little introduction. From chat show and current affairs host to presenter of consumer and lifestyle programmes, Gloria is one of the few broadcasters who can genuinely claim to embrace the spectrum of popular culture. Her elusive ability to communicate with people from all walks and backgrounds has earned her a rare iconic status in the hearts and minds of the British public. Now, having just been made an OBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours and celebrating 70 years in show-business, Gloria is ready to tell her story. With an illustrious career spanning seven decades, as Gloria says herself, 'Even that wide-eyed, ambitious ten-year-old girl from Portadown, County Armagh would never have believed that sixty-seven years later she'd still be in show business'. Gloria has had many lives - starting out as a singer aged seven alongside her father in a troupe of entertainers, before taking the brave step to travel and live in Canada as a teenager, which broadened her horizons in a way she never could have imagined, coming from a religiously divided Northern Ireland. Back home at the age of twenty, following the release of her first record that went into the Ulster charts, she was offered a job at BBC Belfast, which started her on a career trajectory she could only have dreamed about in those early years singing in front of her Bakelite radio, hoping someone would hear her. Working through bombs, bullets and barricades, and the turmoil of the Troubles in the seventies, Gloria soon became a firm fixture on both radio and TV, especially with her nightly show, Good Evening Ulster. It wasn't long before Gloria's charm, wit and tenacity were spotted over the Irish sea, becoming the first ever woman to have a daily radio programme in 1982, presenting on BBC Radio 2 continuously for the next 13 years. She was then offered her first chat show and Sunday, Sunday launched her into the homes of millions of people, as she interviewed some of the greatest stars of our time, including Bette Davis, Charlton Heston, Doris Day, Audrey Hepburn and Sean Connery. Since then, Gloria's career has blossomed, and she has become widely regarded as one of the most respected names in the industry. And with her extremely moving and sentimental account of her daughter's battle with cancer - in the best-selling books Next To You and Always With You - Gloria has sealed her reputation as one of the nation's most respected writers and commentators. More recently known for being a panellist on Loose Women and presenting the daily consumer programme Rip-Off Britain, she has entered the hearts of the nations and will continue to do so for years to come. In My Life Gloria will, for the first time, explore her life from her humble beginnings to the much-loved national treasure she is today.

Always with You

By: Gloria Hunniford

On April 13th, 2004 Gloria Hunniford's 41 year old daughter, Caron Keating, died after a secret seven year battle with cancer. The world that had changed with Caron's diagnosis, now shattered. Life had been cruelly interrupted, a black hole opened in Glorias heart, she was consumed with the unimaginable grief that the loss of a child brings and she was alone. Or so she felt. Within days of Caron's death letters started to arrive. People who had lost their children felt compelled to write. Strangers understood what she was going through often more than the family and friends standing next to her. There were many, many dark days but the letters kept coming and somehow she managed to do the impossible. Wake up everyday, get out of bed, breath. The black hole is still there, sometimes as big as ever, but she has found a way to live with it, around it. This is the story of how Gloria and her family survived Carons death, but it is not only her story. It is written for those who held her while she raged. It is written for all those people who helped her through that first terrible year by writing, but mostly it is written for the many thousands who didnt. Grief is lonely, but as this book shows, you are not alone. Death affects us all at some point. Gloria will never again be the carefree woman she once was, the loss of a loved one is always with you, but so are the living This is how she found her way back to them.

Caron's Courage Remembered by Her Mother

By: Gloria Hunniford

�Gloria Hunniford�s daughter, TV presenter Caron Keating, was 34 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Initially she was declared in the clear but the cancer came back, despite her attempts to fight it off with every therapy going. She died aged 41. This is Gloria�s account of Caron�s life. It is outstanding from the beginning � feels painfully truthful but is utterly absorbing. It does make you cry � endlessly. It is about the difficult bond between mothers and daughters � about what happens to a family when one of its members gets taken over by a disease. Gloria�s honesty in writing this book is extraordinary � both Caron and Gloria come across as amazingly strong, loving and inspiring characters� Daily Express �We see Caron as a daughter, a sister, a wife, a friend and a mother � but most of all as a fighter. This is not a story of illness and death rather it�s a beautiful, emotional celebration of an extraordinary life that sadly ended far too soon. A beautiful read� Daily Record

Glorious Grandparenting

Having the Time of Your Life with Your Grandchildren

By: Gloria Hunniford

Grandparenting is not what it used to be. For the younger generation, an apple or blackberry has a whole new meaning and they will never know what it means to 'wait for the TV to warm up'. As the proud, keen and enthusiastic grandmother to nine wonderful grandchildren, Gloria Hunniford knows a thing or two about keeping up with them. For nearly two decades they have brought her unimaginable joy and, frankly, kept her on her toes. In Glorious Grandparenting she shares her ideas on what to do when the grandchildren come to stay, how to keep pace with them as they grow older, as well as many of her own treasured memories: playing 'animal, vegetable, mineral' on long car journeys to Cornwall, eating picnic lunches in a tent pitched in the garden and practising dance moves to be performed at family parties. For many grandparents these days, life isn't always easy. In this book, Gloria speaks to those who feel 'taken for granted' as a childminder, have conflicting views on childcare, or, sadly have become separated from their grandchildren. She looks at the controversial lack of legal rights for grandparents and offers advice and guidance on handling these emotive issues. Having grandchildren and spending time with them is one of life's great joys. Glorious Grandparenting is a wonderful celebration of what it is to be a grandparent today.

Angels

By: J. T. Stevens,Gloria Hunniford

With a foreword by Gloria Hunniford, ten people tell the story of their Angelic encounters. In Greek Angelos, in Latin Angelus, and in Hebrew Malak. Three names, one meaning: Messenger. But we know them simply as Angels. Artists have painted them, choirs have sung about them, poets and authors have written about them. For many they bring messages of love and reassurance. And a promise that we're not alone. Angels contains inspirational and compelling stories of modern-day Angelic encounters - and includes a unique interview with bestselling author and angel expert Glennyce Eckersley, who tells how angels have changed her own life. From the truly astonishing story of the man whose angel brought hope as he lay trapped and burned after a horrific accident, to that of the soldier whose angel saved him from a bullet, every encounter is different. But in each, the radiant truth shines through: there are angels everywhere ready to help us, supporting us with gentle love and care when we are at our most vulnerable. Based on the Sky TV series Angels produced by Liberty Bell Productions Limited

Glorious Grandparenting

By: Gloria Hunniford

Grandparenting is not what it used to be. For the younger generation, an Apple or a Blackberry should never be eaten, communication is by acronym, and they will never know what it means to wait for the TV to warm up. This is a personal account of what it is to be a grandmother.
