💔 This Morning star Juliet Sear has shared devastating family news after revealing that her beloved father, George, has died unexpectedly.
The TV baker, 52, announced the sad update in an emotional Instagram post, telling fans she still “can’t believe” her dad is gone.
Alongside a series of treasured family photos, Juliet paid tribute to George as a funny, generous and deeply devoted father and grandfather who had been by her side through some of the biggest moments of her life.
The heartbreaking post showed just how close the pair were — from her wedding day to her early years as a mother and the many ordinary daily routines that meant everything to them.
🕊️ Juliet described her dad as a brilliant engineer with a huge personality and a wonderful sense of humour.
She affectionately called him the original “BanterSaurusRex”, remembering his love of music, his generosity and the character he brought into every room.
But her tribute was not only about the big memories.
It was also about the small, everyday acts of love that shaped their bond.
Juliet explained that George had always been there for her, especially during difficult times.
When she had her son George and felt unable to cope, her dad stepped in to help every day.
He was also by her side during her bakery years, offering support not just as a parent, but as a constant presence in her working life.
❤️ The This Morning favourite also opened up about the routines she shared with him.
She revealed that they spoke constantly, often on FaceTime, and joked that thankfully her dad was good with his iPad.
One of their regular traditions was doing his weekly Ocado shop together.
Juliet admitted he could have done it himself, but he preferred doing it with her because it gave them time to talk.
She said he would sometimes drive her mad, but it was clear those ordinary moments had become precious memories.
Now, those everyday conversations are what she will miss most.
👨👩👧👦 George was also devoted to Juliet’s children — George, Lydia and Ruby.
In her post, Juliet shared that her father adored his grandchildren and was a major part of their lives.
The family photos she posted reflected that love, showing George across the years with Juliet and her children.
For followers, the images made the loss feel even more poignant.
This was not just a public tribute.
It was a daughter trying to process the sudden absence of a man who had been woven through every part of her family life.
✨ Juliet ended her message with a touching reference to her late brother Phillip.
She wrote that she was sure Phillip would be saving their dad a bar stool in heaven, adding a deeply personal family phrase at the end of her tribute.
It was a moving final line — full of grief, love and the kind of private family humour that survives even in heartbreak.
🌹 After Juliet shared the news, friends, fans and famous faces rushed to comfort her.
Ruth Langsford sent a heartfelt message, saying she was so sorry for Juliet’s loss and that her dad was clearly a wonderful man.
Dermot O’Leary also shared his condolences, writing: “So sorry for your loss.”
Zoe Ball sent love, while Fearne Cotton told Juliet she was sending her so much love.

💫 The outpouring of support showed how loved Juliet is by viewers and colleagues.
Fans also filled the comments with kind words, many saying they could feel the love between Juliet and her father through her tribute.
Others shared their own experiences of losing a parent, offering comfort during what is clearly an incredibly painful time.
For Juliet, the messages may not take away the grief, but they showed that she is surrounded by warmth as she mourns.
💔 George’s death was unexpected, making the loss even harder to process.
Juliet’s words captured the shock that comes when someone who has always been there is suddenly gone.
Her father had been part of her daily life.
He had helped raise her confidence as a young mum.
He had supported her business.
He had shared jokes, calls, shopping lists and family milestones.
Now, Juliet is facing the painful silence left behind.
🕯️ Her tribute painted a picture of a man who was much more than a father.
George was her helper.
Her FaceTime companion.
Her bakery support.
Her family anchor.
Her children’s devoted grandfather.
And, above all, someone who made life funnier, warmer and richer.
As Juliet and her family grieve, her post stands as a beautiful reminder of the bond they shared — and the love that remains even after goodbye.
