Gene Kelly’s widow reveals adorable note he left on wedding day 'This is it, you're stuck'

This Morning hosts were thrilled to be joined by Gene Kelly’s widow Patricia as she showed off some of his personal belongings and spoke about their first meeting. Amongst the items was a personal note left for Patricia on their wedding day.

Host Ruth Langsford asked: “You must miss him terribly, he dies in 1996 and you’re still single.

“That says something about the man I presume.”

“Well, it’s as I said earlier, it’s a hard act to follow,” Patricia replied.

“He’s so present. He’s really there all the time.”

She excitedly revealed she’d brought in a note left for her before they wed.

“I did bring, this is the note he left me the day we married and I just found this, I’m still unpacking the boxes,” Patricia said producing the letter.

“It says, ‘This is is, you’re stuck, love love your new husband.’”

Smiling, Ruth wrapped up the interview: “I’m sure you loved being stuck.”

“Gene was very specific in his request, he said, ‘I never want a biopic,’” Patricia revealed.

“The film for me, is sort of enforced that and why he made that decision.

“People like a Judy Garland, Gene Kelly, Frank Sinatra, these are comments that fly through the air once.”

She added: “To capture that quality is virtually impossible.”

Also on This Morning, Eamonn and Ruth spoke to Martin Bashir about his stint on X Factor: Celebrity.

The newsreader, who famously interviewed Princess Diana, has made it through to the live shows and is very nervous about the prospect.

In fact, he admitted he’s more nervous to perform for 400 people in the audience than speak to the late Princess of Wales.

This Morning airs weekdays on ITV at 10.30am.
