Make Page Six a Preferred Source Patrick Stewart’s widow, Sunny Ozell, broke her silence on the actor’s death at 86 in a touching social media tribute.
“Today marks two weeks since Patrick passed, and the grief continues to come in waves,” the singer captioned a black-and-white Instagram snap Wednesday. “But I’ve also been experiencing such deep, profound gratitude.”
The 47-year-old explained that she and her late husband “left nothing unsaid” before he passed away on Oct. 28 following a “brief and poignant journey with Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia.”
Ozell told her followers, “He knew I loved him, and I know he loved me. Patrick and I truly, authentically saw one another, and we amplified each other’s best qualities.”
Gushing over their nearly two decades as a couple, the songwriter gushed, “We filled those years with so much living.
“I’ve been overwhelmed by the public response to Patrick’s death,” she continued. “While I’m not at all surprised that he touched so many, I’m sincerely moved by the outpouring of sadness and loss.”

Ozell concluded, “Thank you all for your condolences, they mean so, so much to me. My heart had to grow to contain my love for Patrick, and he changed me for the better, forever.”
The social media upload featured a smiling throwback snap of Ozell hugging her partner.
The couple started dating in 2008, with Stewart popping the question in March 2013.
Stewart was previously married to dancer Sheila Falconer and producer Wendy Neuss, welcoming two kids — son Daniel and daughter Sophie — with the former.
The Golden Globe nominee confessed in his final years that his relationship with his adult children was “practically nonexistent.”
“I always put my acting work first, before my family,” he explained in a 2023 Irish Independent interview.
Previously, Stewart told the Independent in 2009 that he was “obsessed with [his] work and everything else took second place” — something he was trying to “correct” with his grandkids.
Daniel honored Stewart after his death by tweeting a picture of them performing onstage together but did not caption the photo.
