ASHLEY Cain moved fans to tears after speaking about his beloved daughter Azaylia, who died of leukemia.<\/p>\n
The former footballer is starring in The Real Full Monty which sees celebrities strip to raise money for cancer charities. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Ashley, 33, and his ex-partner Safiyya Vorajee tragically lost their daughter when she was just eight months old in 2021. <\/p>\n
During a sit down dinner with the rest of the cast on the new ITV show, Ashley spoke from the heart about his grief.<\/p>\n
Coleen Nolan, who was diagnosed with skin cancer and whose sisters Bernie, Anne and Linda were all diagnosed with cancer, asked Ashley: "How has this been for you? Has it been hard?" <\/p>\n
"I'm erm, you know, a fighter today. I'm f****** angry. I'm angry, you know. Every single day that I wake up in the morning – I'm sad," he replied.<\/p>\n
"Every single day that I wake up in the morning, I'm in pain. <\/p>\n "I go through mega, extreme amounts of trauma, you know. Cancer took something from me that's way more important than my own life and I miss that little girl," he added, blinking back tears.<\/p>\n Paul Burrell, who was given the all-clear from prostate cancer last month, dabbed his eyes with a tissue.<\/p>\n "With everything in my heart and my body. I'm trying to do everything that I can do in my life to try and make a difference so other parents don't have to feel how I feel," Ashley continued.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "And other kids don't have to go through what that little hero went through."<\/p>\n "This experience for me has bought back some of the times in the hopsital where I was feeling pain, and I was feeling sad, but I used to pick that little girl up and I used to dance with her all day to try and make her life a little bit better and in turn it made my life a little bit better."<\/p>\n Ashley has been sporting a long, bushy beard since the death of his daughter.<\/p>\n He explained that he was living at the hospital with Azaylia as it was during Coronavirus.<\/p>\n The football ace said that he was unable to get a haircut, so started growing his beard. <\/p>\n "My beard was growing and Azaylia was growing, she used to hold onto it.<\/p>\n "She used to pull me in with it, she used to roll her toes through it and it was our little connection and I just kind of thought, she's touched these very hairs on my face so I'm never going to cut them off."<\/p>\n By this point, there wasn't a dry eye at the table. <\/p>\n "And this beard is my strength and regardless to whether people like it or they don't, it's going to stay on my face and it's just a beautiful memory of the days that we used to laugh and we used to play."<\/p>\n He let out a little laugh, and said: "I think I'm quite fortunate that it suits me, because it ain't going anywhere." <\/p>\n Fans were touched by Ashley's bravery and vulnerability he showed on the programme.<\/p>\n "Ashley Cain\u2019s story of his beard was moving; not cutting it because his daughter touched it & he will forever have that memory. I\u2019ve lost count of things I kept because my brother saw it, touched it, remarked on it. Cancer is vile. But do what gets you through," one wrote.<\/p>\n "Cried all way through, but Ashley Cain and his beard and speech. Well full on ugly cry," another said.<\/p>\n "Ashley Cain broke my heart with his daughters story," a third wrote.<\/p>\n Ashley is set to become a dad for the second time with a woman he dated earlier this year, and who he has known since he was 18.<\/p>\n In an exclusive interview with The Sun on Sunday, he broke down in tears as he spoke of visiting his daughter\u2019s grave\u00a0to tell her that she was going to be a big sister.<\/p>\n Ashley said: \u201cThe first thing that I did was go down to Azaylia\u2019s resting place to talk to her about it.<\/p>\n \u201cI believe that was a huge part that has allowed me to feel positive about it. I feel like she was the main person that I needed to speak to and to get this thing off my chest.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter going to her resting place and speaking to her about it, I just had a feeling in my heart and in my soul that she was happy for me.<\/p>\n \u201cShe was happy that she had a little brother and it is now just someone else for her to watch over and protect in this world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/picture>ASHLEY'S GIRL <\/span><\/p>\n
