Lorraine Kelly led a host of stars at Dame Deborah James' funeral today as the cancer campaigner was laid to rest.
The mum-of-two, affectionately known as Bowelbabe, lost her battle with cancer last month, aged just 40.
The inspirational campaigner touched the lives of so many and had become friends with Lorraine, 62, after they worked together to raise awareness for bowel cancer on her daytime show.
Dressed in black, the Scottish host held her phone as she made her way into St Mary's Church in Barnes to say her final goodbye to the Deborah.
Also paying their respects was McFly star Tom Fletcher and his wife Giovanna.
The couple looked solemn as they walked to the church holding hands, with Tom wearing a black suit and shoes and Giovanna sporting a long cotton dress in the same colour.
TV presenter Gaby Roslin, Great British Menu host Oliver Peyton and singer Natalie Rushdie were also seen at the church.
Gaby, who was a friend of Deborah's, kept a low profile wearing a smart black shift dress and sunglasses.
Deborah had told her guests she wanted them to wear black when she expressed her wishes for her funeral before she died.
The star leaves behind her husband Sebastien and their two children Hugo, 14, and Eloise, 12.
The trio led the procession as the Rolls Royce made its way to the chapel.
Mourners meanwhile could be seen carrying wreaths of white flowers into the ceremony with heartfelt messages from the campaigner's loved ones.
Ahead of the funeral, Deborah's brother Ben took to Instagram paying tribute to his big sister.
The siblings said a heartbreaking goodbye before her death as Ben flew to the US for his holiday - at Deborah's insistence.
Sharing a montage of videos and photos of the pair, he wrote: "Big sis, Debs. Thank you for teaching me how to live life to the full since the day I was born - you made me find that life worth enjoying!
"Saying bye is never going to be easy, but knowing you achieved more than any of us could ever dream of…and so, so much more…makes it that little bit more bearable. Your legacy will go on forever and we’ll do our very best to make you proud.
"Take it easy up there. Here’s to you x".
Since revealing she was receiving end of life care for bowel cancer, Deborah raised more than £7 million for research.
And one of her final legacies inspired a major change to packs of toilet roll.
From September, an initial 29 million packs of one of the UK’s best-selling loo roll, Andrex Classic Clean, will feature a QR code, which will redirect consumers to Bowel Cancer UK’s symptoms information.
The star's sterling efforts to raise awareness and live with rebellious hope earned the mum-of-two a much-deserved damehood.
Prince William bestowed the honour on Deborah at her parents' home in Surrey where she sat in the garden, drinking champagne - looking lovely as ever.
