Tom Jones shared a heart-wrenching insight into his life without his wife in his autobiography, just a year before she passed away.In his 2015 memoir 'Over the Top and Back: The Autobiography', the iconic singer, aged 84, opened up about his late wife Melinda Trenchard, who sadly lost her battle with lung cancer in 2016.Before her passing, the 'It's Not Unusual' crooner expressed a poignant premonition about his life without his wife of 59 years following her "major operation".Tom penned: "Linda was ill a while ago and needed surgery.

And she got through it. But it was a major operation, and I had to wonder whether I was going to lose her. I was as worried as I have ever been. "It came home to me how she's been part of me through my whole adult life.

Even though I've toured for years and been away for months, she has always been there. And if she weren't...well, surely that's it for me," reports the Mirror. "I'm finished, aren't I?

I find it hard to see myself getting on stage and singing after that. If she dies, that's a huge part of me gone, and I'm not sure I'm going to make it."The couple, who faced Linda's battles with cancer and emphysema together, first met at the tender age of 12 and had one son, Mark.
