Quote by Kate Beckinsale
It's a very difficult thing losing a parent, but I think there's an added complication for me, because he was so well-loved and he had this very open charm that made people feel they had a personal relationship with him.
Summary
This quote acknowledges the unique challenge that comes with losing a parent who was well-loved and had a charm that made people feel close to him. The speaker suggests that this added complexity arises from the fact that many others felt a personal connection to the parent as well. As a result, there may be a heightened sense of loss and grief, as the speaker not only mourns their own personal loss but also witnesses the collective mourning of their parent's admirers.
