The picture shows Goronwy lying in a hospital bed listening to something on a smiling Gethin’s phone.
The presenter shared the picture alongside a caption which read: “‘Wales defeated England,’ (the famous line from Max Boyce). Hymns and Arias with dad last night, before he left us this morning. The most perfect, peaceful end. Welsh hymns playing and the grandsons on speaker phone saying goodbye.â€
Gethin added: “Dad was poorly for a while, he put up a good fight, incredible really. It was so nice to see his dry humour, the importance of faith and his love for classical music shine through at the end.
