Sex Pistols star John Lydon ‘overwhelmingly sad’ as wife battles ‘debilitating’ Alzheimer’s Disease: ‘She forgets everything but me’
Sex Pistols star John Lydon has opened up about his beloved wife’s battle with Alzheimer’s Disease, and admits it can be ‘overwhelmingly sad’. The rocker, also known by his stage name John Rotten, has been married to Nora Forster for 45 years and has become her carer since she was diagnosed with the ‘incurable’ disease in 2018. Alzheimer’s falls under the umbrella of Dementia, which is a range of progressive neurological disorders (those affecting the brain) which impact memory, thinking and behaviour. Sharing their ordeal, John told The Times: ‘Alzheimer’s is a wicked, debilitating, slow, deliberate process, but we’re going through that together. She doesn’t forget me.
