James Ciseau dead: Bride and Prejudice stars wife Tori pays tribute
Former Bride and Prejudice contestant Tori Ciseau has posted a heartbreaking tribute to her late husband James, who died in a horrific head-on crash at Beerwah in Queensland.
The grieving widow has vowed to keep his memory alive for their two young daughters, telling James: I loved you at the start, I love you now and I will love you until the end.”
And a GoFundMe has now been set up to help James’ grieving family cover funeral costs, with more than $6000 raised so far towards a goal of $10,000.
Family friend Tara Lord set up the GoFundMe page, asking those sending flowers to the family to consider a small donation instead.
“As you know, the Ciseau family are very close, and as they struggle to come to terms with the loss of James, I am hoping we can come together for them in these difficult times, so we can give him the send-off he deserves and say our last goodbyes,” she wrote.
James and Tori appeared together in the 2019 season of the Channel 7 reality show, which sees couples confront family members who disapprove of their relationships. Both were seeking the blessing of Tori’s disapproving mother Mary-Ann before they got married.
The couple ended the season with a lavish TV wedding – with Tori’s mother in attendance.
Two years later, and Tori is living a “nightmare” as she mourns the loss of James, father to the couple’s two young daughters, Olivia-Rose and Bella-Pearl, after a horror road accident on Monday.
“One day I will wake up from this nightmare … One day we will all be together again. Until then your two beautiful baby girls will grow up in your legacy,” she wrote on Instagram overnight alongside a happy picture of the couple together.
“I would give anything to turn back time and be in this photos exact moment. I know you will be watching over us 3 girls as I have already felt your presence over us.
“Just like we promised always and forever, I now promise our babies will always and forever keep you alive in all of us. Our babies are all that your/our family have left of you now and I’ll help them keep your memory forever living on through them.
“James Lucas Sabien Ciseau, I loved you at the start, I love you now and I will love you until the end.”
