Derryn Hinch dead at 82<\/a><\/p>\n\u201cHe texted me the night that he died,\u201d she said via a video link to the funeral.<\/p>\n
With tears in her eyes, the actor said she would love Hinch \u201cforever\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cGoodbye. I love you, I have loved you from the very start to the very end.<\/p>\n
\u201cGood Night, sweet dreams. Good Night. I love you.\u201d<\/p>\n
The actor, who was unable to attend the funeral due to scheduling issues, read a letter from her son, Dylan.<\/p>\n
In the letter, he said he could not recall where the actor met Hinch.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I do recall that mum\u2019s first impression of Derryn was, \u2018bumptious\u2019, she said\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat became a running joke throughout their marriage.\u201d<\/p>\n
Weaver said one of the most \u201chumble moments\u201d Hinch spent with her son was before his transplant.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe and I were discussing his drinking and what it had led to. Inspired by the clarity of sobriety, his epiphany to me was simply \u2018I was a f**king idiot\u2019,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Among the famous mourners at the star\u2019s state funeral was singer and dancer Rhonda Burchmore, talk show host and comedian Steve Vizard, Perfect Match host Greg Evans and singer and 3AW colleague Denis Walter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Derryn Hinch\u2019s alleged fling with an iconic Hollywood star has been exposed by one of the late Aussie\u2019s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":817151,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[392593,392589,392602,392622,392616,392615,392607,392568,392613,392599,392580,337378,392610,392606,392587,376963,392592,387703,392569,383124,392618,392567,392597,392583,392588,392586,158962,64,392604,43336,63,364267,392617,83158,392609,392578,372622,32904,392612,379476,134,392600,39598,295689,392579,390274,392585,378820,392581,372791,380061,392591,392594,392620,392575,392611,392601,392608,372796,378546,221073,647,392619,392576,46358,392573,392614,128904,345961,392623,53645,392621,144205,353452,37806,389353,392598,379529,392582,392574,392590,392605,377303,392584,392603,392595,392570,377486,392577,34537,392571,214757,392572,392596,392624,390215,225858,9119,26185],"class_list":["post-817150","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-s-alleged-fling","tag-s-close-pals","tag-s-ex","tag-s-first-impression","tag-s-hollywood","tag-s-secret-fling","tag-s-state-funeral","tag-s-third-wife","tag-1983-and-1998","tag-3aw-colleague-denis-walter","tag-53-years","tag-337378","tag-82-he","tag-a-journalistic-james-bond","tag-a-beloved-australian-broadcaster","tag-a-bit","tag-a-brief-romantic-affair","tag-a-ceremony","tag-a-fking-idiot","tag-a-friend","tag-a-letter","tag-a-life-privilege","tag-a-running-joke","tag-a-true-hollywood-icon","tag-a-video-link","tag-an-iconic-hollywood-star","tag-attendees","tag-au","tag-aus-star","tag-aussie","tag-australia","tag-bette-midler","tag-comedian-steve-vizard","tag-contact","tag-derryn","tag-derryn-and-bette-midler","tag-derryn-hinch","tag-drama","tag-dylan-in","tag-earlier-this-week","tag-entertainment","tag-fellow-broadcaster-close-friend-darren-james","tag-friday","tag-good-night","tag-he-and-i","tag-her-ex-husband","tag-her-eyes","tag-her-silence","tag-her-son","tag-hinch","tag-his-death","tag-his-death-more","tag-his-drinking","tag-his-epiphany","tag-his-former-colleague","tag-his-transplant","tag-hollywood-icon-bette-midler","tag-horizontal-romper","tag-jacki-weaver","tag-july-10","tag-laughter","tag-melbourne","tag-melbourne-the-crowd","tag-mr-tardio","tag-mum","tag-one-last-bombshell","tag-perfect-match-host-greg-evans","tag-scheduling-issues","tag-secret-fling","tag-show-host-and","tag-singer","tag-singer-and-dancer-rhonda-burchmore","tag-sobriety","tag-sweet-dreams","tag-talk","tag-that-interview","tag-the-human-headline","tag-the-actor","tag-the-broadcaster-and-politician","tag-the-clarity","tag-the-dead","tag-the-famous-mourners","tag-the-funeral","tag-the-funeral-with-tears","tag-the-late-radio-star","tag-the-letter","tag-the-most-humble-moments","tag-the-night","tag-the-only-thing-history","tag-the-star","tag-the-state-funeral","tag-the-truth","tag-the-very-end","tag-the-very-start","tag-the-wild-allegation","tag-their-marriage","tag-tony-tardio","tag-tribute","tag-weaver"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817150","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=817150"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817150\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/817151"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=817150"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=817150"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=817150"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
