Zoe Ball Announces the Sad Passing of Her Mother After Cancer Struggle

Remembering a Life Well Loved

Julia Peckham will be remembered not just as the mother of one of Britain’s most beloved radio personalities, but as a woman whose life was defined by kindness, laughter, courage and love.

These are the qualities Zoe said her mother taught her, and ones she and her brother will carry forward in memory of Julia’s life.

In the weeks and months ahead, Zoe has indicated that she and her family will continue to treasure those lessons as they grieve and remember.

Her tribute stands as a deeply human expression of love and loss — a testament to the ways in which a mother’s influence endures in the hearts of children, long after she has gone.
