TICKLED PINK! Kerre’s fab new life
As 2020 rolled around, Weekly columnist Kerre McIvor couldn’t have been happier. She had just returned from a trip to London, where she’d spent time with her daughter Kate Berich, 31, son-in-law Ranko, also 31, and her adorable grandchildren Bart, three, and Theodora, almost two. As they’d said goodbye at the airport, there were promises to see each other again in the middle of the year. And she was also planning a fresh direction from her husband Tom and looking forward to spending lots of time at her house in the Hokianga.
“I get a physical ache when I can’t see my babies and I get a physical ache when I can’t get up north and recharge,” she explains. “Like lots of people, I had a lot of plans. I was really excited.”
And when news of a killer virus began to circulate, the radio journalist didn’t think too much about it.
