A regular customer of The Riverstown Inn, a local pub where O'Keeffe celebrated her birthday, commented, "I saw her last week and she was in great form. I know she was ill in February but she pulled through that. We just cannot believe she is gone."
Following the news of her mother passing, Jonathan was spotted with a can of extra strong cider in hand at 10 a.m. in the street of London. Later that day, his publicist, Meridith O'Sullivan gave out statement of the news. She stated, "I can confirm she passed away, but there are no more details tonight."
