Victoria Mary Clarke, Shane MacGowan's wife, admitted that she felt suicidal and called The Samaritans 'several times' after the death of The Pogues star, stating that there was "no easy way past" grief. Victoria, who is an Irish journalist and author, met Shane at 16 and the pair were married from 2018 up until his tragic passing last year.

Victoria Mary Clarke has revealed Shane MacGowan’s last words to her as she prepares to mark his first anniversary next week: “I love you.” The Pogues legend died last November at the age of 65, prompting an outpouring of national grief.

Since the Pogues’ frontman’s passing, his wife Victoria Mary Clarke has been open about her experiences with grief and how she’s processing his loss.

She told the Irish Mirror that she still speaks to The Pogues legend and can sense his presence, almost one year after his death
