“And Caron never wanted her boys to see her without the wig.”
She continued: “But what we did quite early on was quite a real hair wig made for her.
“Honestly I was quite shocked at how real it is because you could be an inch away from the root and you just don’t know [it’s a wig].
“For her, she loved having it and she just said, ‘Oh I had my hair cut off’, because she had lovely long hair.”
Gloria added: “So she coped well, but I think for a lot of people the wig is the answer.”
Last month, Gloria supported her Loose Women co-star Brenda Edwards following the death of her son Jamal.
Brenda sadly lost her son Jamal, 31, on February 20.
During an episode of Loose Women, Gloria said: “I just want to say to Brenda that ever since I heard the terrible news on Sunday about Jamal, they’ve been here [in her mind] the whole time.
“Jamal was such a fantastic young man.”
She added: “Sometimes when a friend, or anybody you know, loses a loved one, some people say, ‘I didn’t know what to write,’ or ‘I didn’t know what to say.’
“Let me tell you something, it means so much.”
