James O'Brien reveals heartbreaking texts his daughter sent to her dead grandfather

Radio presenter James O’Brien has revealed the heartwarming texts his daughter sent to her dead grandfather.

The LBC presenter posted screengrabs of his youngest daughter’s texts on his Twitter account, in which she sends her love to her deceased relative.

The messages haven’t been delivered as the phone is not connected to a network, as Mr O’Brien only lets her use the device for games, which he downloads before switching off the internet connectivity.
