Dave lost his father Desmond in November 2010.
He spoke about his father’s death from cancer at the age of 78 in an interview with the Herald Sun in 2010.
Shortly before his death, the TV host told his father, who also suffered from dementia, that he loved him and appreciated everything he had done for the family. ‘
You don’t tell people you love them because it’s embarrassing to say it. Or tell people you appreciate what they’ve done for you. So I did it very late,” he admitted. “I think he heard me.”
Hughes is pictured with his wife Holly and their three children: son Rafferty and daughters Sadie and Tess.
