He now relies on nurses and carers for round-the-clock care
Friends and neighbours of disgraced former TV star Rolf Harris have revealed that he is gravely ill and can barely eat or talk now.
The 92-year-old still lives with his wife of 64 years, Alwen Hughes, who has Alzheimer’s disease. They rarely leave the house nowadays, with the couple effectively spending entire days at home, reports the Mirror. Writer William Merritt, who earlier this year released his book ‘Rolf Harris: The Defence Team’s Special Investigator Reveals the Truth Behind the Trials’ confirmed Harris was “gravely sick” and revealed it was difficult to understand him when he communicates. He said: “As far as his health goes, yes, he is very ill.However he insisted former Harris would still try to be an entertainer on the rare occasions he had guests.
“I was convicted of offences I did not commit in my first trial. That is not just my view, but the view of the Court of Appeal who overturned one of my convictions.
