Lorna Luxe is opening up about one of the most tender ways her late husband, John Andrews, tried to care for her future before his death.
Geo News reported that the British fashion influencer said John left behind notes about the kind of person he hoped she would be with one day.
The Sun’s Fabulous reported that John wanted her to find love again, even as Lorna continues to grieve the loss of their 16-year marriage.

Lorna said John wrote down qualities he wanted a future partner to have, including kindness. She also said he warned her about red flags, giving her guidance for a life he knew she might eventually have to build without him.
“He wrote me loads of notes on his phone, too. I still keep finding them,” she told Fabulous.
Some of those notes were about practical protection as much as romance. Lorna said John worried about her money and warned her not to open a joint bank account with someone new.
Lorna Said She Will Not Stay Single Forever
Lorna admitted that she is not ready to date now and still worries John may have been her one great love. Still, she said there is “no way” she will stay single forever.
She also said she may keep any future relationship more private. After sharing so much of her marriage with John online, Lorna said the idea of having something personal that does not need to be explained publicly now feels appealing.
She Is Learning to Live Without Her Partner
John died at home on Feb. 11 after a cancer diagnosis that began in 2023. People previously reported that Lorna announced his death in an emotional Instagram tribute, writing that they were together at home, in bed and holding hands, which was what he wanted.
Since then, Lorna has spoken about the emotional and practical shock of widowhood. She told Fabulous that John handled many parts of their life together, including cooking, cleaning, driving, bills, phone accounts and Wi-Fi.

Lorna is also continuing to work on her businesses, including LA-Space and 98 Beauty.
She said returning to social media has helped her feel less alone after a period offline following John’s death. Lorna has also started writing a Fabulous column about widowhood while she continues to process the loss.
Lorna, whose real name is Lorna Andrews, is the founder of the luxury clothing brand L.A-S.
