Kym Marsh has been supported by her fans and followers after sharing a glimpse at the way she and her family marked her dad's first birthday since his death. The actress has been dealing with her heartbreaking loss after she and her family issued a statement in January confirming David Marsh's death, aged 78.
It came after David, known as Dave, shared his prostate cancer diagnosis in 2021. He appeared on BBC's Morning Live with Kym and his wife Pauline after he wanted to make others aware of the symptoms and to seek medical help.
In November 2023, Kym's parents appeared on the BBC One programme to provide an update with Kym, 47, saying they were living "day by day" as her father’s cancer had spread into his bones before it was announced on January 12 that Dave had sadly died.

Over the weekend, Kym emotionally shared how she was facing a fresh 'first' without her dad. Taking to Instagram, the former Coronation Street star shared a picture of herself and Dave and said: "Happy birthday Daddy. First one without you here. Can’t bear it. I miss you so much."
Then on Sunday (March 17), Kym, who spent more than a decade on the cobbles playing Michelle Connor in the ITV soap, shared how she and her family marked the emotional occasion.
Sharing a picture of herself surrounded by her loved ones, she wrote on Instagram: "Beautiful day celebrating dads birthday with the family @marshyswife @davidmarsh1966 @traceyjanemarsh @cunliffe890 @listentoemilie @courtneyleac @mikeyhoz @kimxmarsh @richard.marshh @lennyk92017 and all the kids."
