Nora Forster has died - Johnny Rotten's wife for nearly 50 years

That’s very sad. He adored her.

He'll be heartbroken; so sad. RIP Nora and sincere condolences Johny.

He’s often spoken of his love for his wife. Condolences to Johnny.

RIP Nora, he had looked after her since her dementia diagnosis 💐

Oh dear, that is sad, I was reading about them recently, such devotion. 💐.

RIP Nora. A lifetime of love and devotion. So sad Johnny.

"Devotion" is the right word, isn't it?

He was utterly devoted to her. So sad.

how sad

He spoke so movingly about her, and about caring for her, it's very sad.

So sad, they seemed such a devoted couple and he cared for her so selflessly.

Condolences to John, RIP Nora.
This is a link to “Hawaii” the love song he wrote to Nora, which he hoped would raise awareness of dementia.

I’ve just been looking at photos of John and Nora, and they were always laughing.
I didn’t realise until just now that Nora was the mother of the late Ari Up.

I am very sorry to hear this.

A story of such love and devotion is always moving, but that they maintained this marriage in the pop music world where marriage and relationships are so often shag today, gone tomorrow, raises this relationship to alevel all of its own.

So sorry to read this. You did a wonderful job caring for your wife Johnny. RIP Nora.

Monica how crude! Completely unnecessary on this thread. Be ashamed of yourself.

Don't be ashamed of yourself M0nica.

Why should she be ashamed? She raised a very valid point in a way that JR would no doubt approve of!

Never ever go on MN Joane, it will blow your mind.
I have just read some more about the family history, with regards to them caring for their teenage grandchildren, a difficult life in many ways.

I think that John would be more offended by being affiliated to ‘the pop music world’ than anything else that Monica has said

Whatever people may or may not think of JL himself, they spent a lifetime of devotion together and he cared for her very much in sickness and in health, through the most cruel of diseases. He must be bereft without her.

That's right Blondiescot his love for his wife speaks volumes about the man.
RIP Nora.

He sounds to be a caring husband.
Must admit I know nothing about him really, he was a punk rocker of course, and later did ads for English butter which I liked.Alzheimers is a terrible thing to have.
Lovely to have had such a long happy marriage.
