Alex Beresford feels "upset, trapped, and powerless" after his step-grandmother died.
The 39-year-old weather presenter has been left devastated after his gran passed away alone, and he cannot even visit his mother or step-father to give them a hug due to coronavirus social distancing guidelines.
He wrote on Twitter: "My lovely step grandmother died on her own tonight! I can\'t even go to my mums to hug her or my stepdad. They also can\'t leave the house because they are vulnerable and I doubt they would let us in to pay our respects. I feel upset, trapped and powerless! (sic)"
Alex also thanked NHS volunteers for helping his mother out during the pandemic.
Speaking in a video on his Twitter account, he said: "This is just a massive, massive, thank you to all of the NHS volunteers who have signed up to absolutely great, sterling work, as well as the NHS.
"I\'ve been going to the shops for my mum, I\'ve been collecting her medication on a weekly basis in between presenting the weather.
"But today I didn\'t have to do that because a lovely lady delivered my mum\'s medication right to the doorstep, and my mum also received one of those food parcels.
"And we were amazed just how much great food was in the food parcel, and it\'s really going to keep my mum going.
"So thank you so much for helping my mum and making my day easier as well.
"You didn\'t have to sign up but you signed up, and it touched me today, so thank you so much."
