Overview

• Remember When: My Life With Alzheimer’s was published in July by Pan Macmillan, featuring Fiona’s perspective and Martin Frizell’s 24,000-word contribution to highlight the challenges of early-onset dementia.
• Frizell recounts a recent incident in which Fiona, gripped by delusions, believed he had kidnapped her during a walk near their London home.
• Phillips now endures frequent anxiety, depression and chronic pain that compound her confusion and have erased her former interests in cooking and designer fashion.
• Martin Frizell stepped down as editor of ITV’s This Morning in February to become Fiona’s full-time carer and manage her daily needs and legal affairs.
• The couple are using their memoir to campaign for increased Alzheimer’s research funding and stronger support services for those facing the disease at a younger age.
