According to the Daily Express - Showbiz, Margolyes said she wants to spend her final days abroad because she feels 'death is close' and her health is ailing. She stated that Brexit has affected her ability to live in her house in Italy, which she bought as a home where she and Sutherland intended to end their lives. Margolyes is considering becoming Dutch or Italian to reside there, as she already holds Australian and English nationalities.
Margolyes also expressed a desire to see singer David Essex again before she dies, appealing for him to get in touch. She described him as 'so lovely' and said she does not want to die without seeing him. Additionally, she spoke about physical ailments, including a shoulder problem that makes it difficult to put on a bra and a weak pelvic floor, which she said causes incontinence. The exact timeline for her move and the status of her Italian house remain unclear.
