Television presenter Gail Porter has described late Prodigy frontman Keith Flint as the love of her life, one year after his tragic death. Porter, who dated Flint between 1999 and 2000, opened up about their relationship on Louis Theroux's BBC Sounds podcast, Grounded.
Porter recalled their first blind date, saying they 'did not stop laughing for the entire evening' and were together for almost two years. She praised Flint for not discussing work, instead focusing on fun activities. The couple later travelled to the Maldives for work, where Porter said their mental health was 'fantastic'.
However, upon returning, Flint struggled to adjust. 'He just didn't get his mind back into things properly,' Porter said. 'He was on a downer, I was trying to work my hardest, so it was a shame.' She noted that their relationship worked because they both had their own issues, but the timing of their struggles ultimately led to their split.
Flint was found dead at his home on March 4, 2019, at the age of 49. Porter described his death as 'terrible' and said she misses him deeply.
