Georgia Love may have lost her mother more than four years ago, but as anyone who has said goodbye to a loved one knows, there’s no time limit on grief.

The former Bachelorette knows this as well as anyone and on Monday, Georgia shared a touching tribute to Instagram, revealing she was missing her mum more than ever.
“There’s some days you just wake up missing them crazy amounts 💗 💔” Georgia captioned a throwback photo of her mum Belinda.
Belinda Love lost her battle with pancreatic cancer aged 60 just weeks after Georgia found love with her Bachelorette winner, Lee Elliott in 2016 and only a day after the finale aired.
In October 2020, Georgia marked the four-year anniversary of Belinda’s passing with another heartbreaking Instagram post.
“Four excruciatingly long years, yet somehow still a lifetime ahead,” Georgia wrote alongside a photo of herself as a child with her mother.
Georgia previously spoke about the devastating loss in an interview with The Project shortly after The Bachelorette finale aired.
“In the space of 24 hours, we went from having one of the happiest moments where we could finally be in the same room together and tell everybody how we feel and be able to relax and literally 24 hours later I got the worst phone call of my life,” she told The Project.
“It’s been incredibly difficult but would’ve been so much more difficult if Lee hadn’t had been there.”
Georgia also remarked that a lot of people had asked her if she regretted going away for three months to film The Bachelorette while her mum was sick as she had been diagnosed just six months before.
“If I hadn’t gone on The Bachelorette I wouldn’t have Lee to have supported me through this but I also would’ve been in Tassie so I would’ve actually been further away from my mum so I don’t regret anything that happened.”
