Speaking to the Daily Mail’s Eden Confidential column at the time, a source said the loss had “devastated” Tom.

They told the newspaper: “Tom had been blissfully happy with Alice and is devastated that life can be so cruel. Partly because of COVID, Alice’s cancer diagnosis didn’t come until last August, by when it was too late.”

They then added: “That’s what’s so really cruel and there will be countless others like her.”

‘She will be greatly missed’

Alice was the granddaughter of the 2nd Viscount Ingleby and had three young children with her estranged husband, Robert Procope, grandson of baronet Sir Robert Wigram.

She died peacefully at home, just seven months after her cancer diagnosis. In a statement at the time, her family shared their sadness.

“She was much loved and will be greatly missed. She is in heaven now, cheering us all on,” the statement read. Details were then shared abotu her remains: “Her ashes will be laid to rest with family at St Gregory’s Minster, Kirkdale in North Yorkshire.

“It is a truly beautiful spot with a sundial above the church door that is nearly 1,000 years old. Magical places like this put everything else into perspective,” the statement then concluded.

Tom’s relationship history

Before meeting Alice, Tom had been married to wife Sara. They share two children – Lola, 17, and Freddy, 14.

Tom moved out of the family home in 2018 and, as a result, his divorce from Sara was finalised in 2022. She then spoke of the pain of their divorce – but also suggested the two are on good terms.

“Divorce is horrible. The end of a relationship with someone you love is hard. It’s painful to think, how much of this is my fault? Have I messed up my life? It was very dark,” Sara said.

She then added: “Of course you feel guilty forever for hurting your kids, that’s never going to go away and I would rather we had stayed together as a family. But, fortunately, I’ve arrived at the conclusion that these things just happen.

“My marriage was a happy one until it wasn’t and I’ll always think of it in very affectionate terms,” she also said.
