She read the letter, which said: “Dear Miss Edwards, I particularly wanted to write and say how desperately sorry I was to hear the tragic news of your dear son Jamal. I can only begin to imagine what an immense and aching gap he will leave in your life and that of your daughter Tanisha.”

The letter continued: “My heart goes out to both of you more than I can ever say. I shall never forget Jamal’s dedication and support in helping with my Prince’s Trust over the years.

“His commitment as an ambassador has made the most enormous difference to the Trust’s work and has helped to change the lives of countless disadvantaged, young people.”

As the TV star began to cry, she added: “I have such fond memories of the times I met him and can ill afford in this country to lose someone exceptionally special as your dear son.

“I feel this letter can only be hopelessly inadequate under such soul-destroying circumstances and will probably be no comfort of whatsoever in making your sense of anguish any easier to bare.”

In February 2022, Jamal tragically passed away at the age of just 31.

He died due to cardiac arrhythmia which is caused by “having taken recreational drugs”, Brenda confirmed at the time.

Jamal was a music entrepreneur, DJ, and founder of SB.TV, an online urban music platform. He was also an ambassador for the Prince’s Trust.
