Sharing a picture of himself and his late mum to Instagram to announce the news, Jamie wrote in a social media post: “Sadly we lost our beautiful mum today on Mother’s Day
“After a 12 year battle with Alzheimer’s, she finally decided it was time to leave us. For anyone who knows what it’s like to have someone with this awful illness, you will know that you lose them not once but twice.
“Our mum was always so strong and to watch her over the years slowly turn into someone who is just a shell of who they once were is very difficult to take and watch.
“You are now at peace mum and we love you and we will miss you so so much. You were the first person to love me before the world even knew I existed.
“Good night mum R I P.
“I wanted to say a huge thank you to all the wonderful staff who cared for her on a daily basis and for those who helped her in some way. You truly are all amazing people”.
Jamie’s sister Charley also took to the platform to share her own tribute, posting a picture of herself with their mum from childhood.
The actress wrote: “My beautiful Mum left us today on Mother’s Day. 15/03/2026.
“The past twelve years were stolen from us, that’s the only way to describe this feeling. ‘The long goodbye’, Thank you to everyone for all of your support, especially everyone that’s looked after her so well for the last 3 years.”
Charley closed off: “And to all of my closest people, I couldn’t life without you”.
