SAS: Who Dares Wins Jungle Hell viewers were left in floods of tears after recruit Becky shared the heartbreaking loss of her daughter.
This time in the tough Vietnamese jungle, recruits had to face a strenuous hike and abseiling into a bat-invested cave 200ft below.
But it was Becky’s story that captured the emotions of viewers of the Channel 4 series this week.
Recruit Becky opened up about the loss of her daughter
Recruit Number 5, Becky, a housewife and mum from Essex, opened up about the heartbreaking loss of her daughter in last night’s episode.
When her son was two years old, Becky gave birth to a baby girl named Darcey.
But when Darcey was just two and a half years old, she became ill and unable to keep food down.
Darcey was initially diagnosed with gastroenteritis but, after her daughter started walking in an unusual way, Becky took Darcey to A&E where she was diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Darcey underwent surgery to save her life but died three weeks later.
Becky opened up to Directing Staff in SAS: Who Dares Wins about the devastating loss of her young child.
She told them: “My daughter passed away when she was two and a half, of cancer. It doesn’t get easier.”
“I’ve got a little boy, so – and he’s amazing, he’s my rock – you just have to get up the next day and do things because he’s there. Life just goes on, doesn’t it.”
