Lulu has offered a heartfelt homage to her former husband, John Frieda.
The renowned celebrity hairdresser passed away at 75 on 3 November, “peacefully… surrounded by his family.”
At 78, Lulu marked Frieda with a poignant post on Instagram, describing it as their “last photo together.”
The image captures the two smiling, gazing away from the camera, with Frieda wrapping an arm around Lulu.
“Our last photo together Sept 2026. A lifetime of memories. Rip Johnny,” read her caption.
Those who commented included Sir Elton John’s husband, David Furnish, who left a heart emoji, and broadcaster Gabby Logan, who wrote: “Sending you lots of love.”
The Scottish singer and Frieda began their romance in the 1970s before marrying in a registry ceremony in 1977, in a ceremony attended by Sir Elton John, Tom Jones and Ringo Starr.
They welcomed son Jordan, then 49, in 1977 and ultimately separated after fourteen years of marriage in 1991.
Following their divorce, Frieda wed Frances Avery Agnelli in 2019, a union that had formed after an initial meeting in 2002. Together they had two children, Jackson and Leyla, with Frieda also acting as a stepfather to Asia.
Frieda’s passing was announced on 4 November on his hair salon’s official Instagram page, which stated: “It is with heavy hearts that we share the news that our dear John passed away peacefully… surrounded by his family.”
“John was more than a mentor to us; he was a true icon of the hair industry. He was the person who taught us everything, believed in us, and made us better.”
“His talent and passion touched so many, and his legacy will live on in every single one of us. We will continue to do him proud. Our thoughts are with John’s family and everyone who loved him. Rest in peace, John. You will be forever in our hearts.” The statement concluded.
