Coronation Street star Adam Rickitt reveals he's been left 'heartbroken' after the death of his best friend of 46 years as he shares moving tribute
Adam Rickitt has revealed he has been left 'heartbroken' as he shared his best man and friend of 46 years has died in a post shared to Instagram on Thursday. The Coronation Street actor, 46, who played Nick Tilsey in the soap paid a heartfelt tribute to his pal with a sweet black-and-white snap. And his life-long best friend and supporting man for the big day has now passed away as Adam, who played Nick Tilsley in the soap, paid a heartfelt tribute with a sweet black-and-white picture. Alongside his post, Adam penned: 'So hard to goodbye. I can't even describe who you are to me. 'Part father, part friend. For 46 years I knew no matter what the sea of life threw at were the rock that would stand by me as the waves crashed. 'You would take on an army for would always be my were the best of were my best man. 'I feel like I've lost I can't be sad. The day Janet joy left you. I'm so happy the 2 of you are we'll miss you best have everything on ice for when we see you again!' Showing their support, his fans rushed to the comments section with messages of condolence and support. One wrote: 'So sorry for your loss. Sending love x,'; 'Very sorry for your loss Adam.'; 'What a beautiful tribute to your dear friend, so sorry for your loss.' Adam and his wife Katy married just before Christmas in 2014, following a two-year engagement. The Good Morning Britain presenter gushed of the wedding to OK! at the time: 'Adam laid his soul completely bare and I was so desperate to kiss him that the registrar had to tell me off! I felt so full of love and emotion, I cried quite a lot.' Adam has previously revealed to Loose Women in 2017 that he knew his wife Katy Fawcett was 'the one' after mere minutes of being with her. He gushed that he wholly believes the Good Morning Britain presenter is his soulmate - before going on to candidly discuss his battle with chronic spine condition Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS). The actor recalled his first meeting with his wife Katy while she was sat in the audience, and revealed it had been as early as their first meeting that he knew she was the one he wanted to marry. He began: 'I thought maybe I won't be lucky and never meet the love of my life, that my success would only be in my career. 'But I went to do an interview and Katy turned up to interview me... and I rang my mum after and said 'I've met the girl I'm going to marry.'' Met with delight from the audience, the brunette beauty then interjected to admit the feelings had been mutual. She explained: 'I was supposed to be interviewing him for an hour but I ended up staying for about five.' Before adding: 'I didn't think he would be interested, I just thought he was the most wonderful guy.' However, Adam then melted the hearts of the audience further by detailing his belief in soulmates in life - and gushing that believed Katy was his perfect match. 'I genuinely believe that when you're born you're born with half a soul,' he began. 'And I don't think you can be truly happy until you meet the other half. But I think she's the other half.' Wanting to find fault in the actor, the hosts then interrupted by pleading: 'Please tell me he leaves the toilet seat down or something!'
