**Tributes Pour in for ‘This Morning’ Guest Feared Lost in Air India Tragedy**
Tributes have been pouring in for Fiongal Greenlaw, a recent guest on ITV’s *This Morning*, and his husband Jamie Meek, both of whom are now believed to have lost their lives in a fatal Air India crash. The couple, known for founding the Ramsgate-based Wellness Foundry, were reportedly returning to the UK following a holiday in India when disaster struck shortly after take-off.
Martin Frizell, former editor of *This Morning*, led tributes with a heartfelt post on Instagram. Frizell, who stepped down as show editor earlier this year, recalled Fiongal’s effervescent personality and commitment to his craft. Reflecting on Fiongal’s January appearance, he described him as “passionate about auras” and said, “his vibrancy and sheer enthusiasm won folk over—even the sceptics.” Frizell noted the excitement both Fiongal and Jamie had for their business and extended his condolences to their families and friends.
Support and sympathy soon followed from the wider ITV community. *Good Morning Britain*’s Susanna Reid was among those responding to Frizell’s message, while presenter Lisa Snowdon shared her sadness through emotive emoji comments, illustrating the impact Fiongal had made during his brief but memorable stints on screen.
Fiongal’s appearances on *This Morning* this year marked important milestones, both for his career and his brand’s visibility. In January, he provided an aura reading for presenters Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley, at a time when Frizell was still overseeing the show. The segment was well received, with Fiongal later invited to return as a spiritual advisor in April—this time joined on set by Josie Gibson alongside Ben and Cat.
The Wellness Foundry, the business Fiongal and Jamie cultivated together, later celebrated their television exposure with an enthusiastic social media post. “The biggest gig so far! Fiongal on This Morning—it was very nerve-wracking but he was honoured to chat about one of his favourite topics to such a big audience,” read the post. Fiongal accompanied the message with thanks to both This Morning’s team and the show’s presenters for their encouragement and support.
Tragically, news broke that Fiongal and Jamie were among passengers feared dead after boarding a doomed Air India flight from Ahmedabad, bound for London Gatwick. Footage shared by the couple just prior to boarding showed the pair in high spirits, discussing their experiences in India and looking forward to returning home. In the video, Fiongal joked about “not losing patience with your partner” on the road, highlighting both their camaraderie and the ordinary joys of travel.
“Goodbye India. Ten-hour flight back to England,” Fiongal said as the couple prepared to depart, while Jamie reflected with a touch of humour on his favourite trip memory. Their playful exchange now resonates poignantly with friends, followers, and viewers who came to know them through their screen appearances and online presence.
The suddenness of the tragedy has left the wellness and entertainment communities reeling. For many, Fiongal’s passion and authenticity brought a sense of optimism and curiosity to the public conversation around wellness and spiritual wellbeing. Jamie, who was equally involved in the business and its ethos, was remembered for his supportive presence at both public events and in personal moments shared online.
With investigations into the recent Air India crash still underway, friends and colleagues of the couple are left in a state of shock, sharing memories while awaiting official confirmation and further details. The loss is felt keenly in Ramsgate and beyond, underscoring how swiftly lives can change.
As tributes continue, the legacy left by Fiongal and Jamie through the Wellness Foundry, and their engaging television work, will no doubt endure in the hearts of those who knew and admired them. The outpouring of grief and respect serves as a reminder of their impact both within and beyond the wellness community.
