Now that Mary and Ewan spend part of their time living in Scotland, the married couple have been spotted around the country. Most recently, the two stopped by Rachel House children’s hospice in Kinross. Ewan, who was also accompanied by brother Colin and his wife Sarah, was given a tour of the hospice by CHAS CEO Rami Okasha before meeting five children with life-shortening conditions who are supported by the charity.
One of the mothers of the families Ewan visited had this to say after meeting Mary and Ewan:
“He came over for a wee visit with his wife Mary and they were both so lovely. Freya is having a BIPAP trial and he came in to see us. They spent a bit of time chatting to us and he was really interested in Freya’s trial.”
“My oldest daughter Katie was there as well so she was really excited to meet his wife, she was a big fan of her films when she was younger. Katie loved watching Robots when she was little – Ewan McGregor did the voiceover for that so she was pretty excited to meet him too.
“Ewan was very interested in us and as he was leaving, he touched Freya’s hand and said ‘Bye Freya’ and it was such a lovely gesture.
“They were both such lovely people, they really took an interest in us and Freya.”
Ewan spent time chatting with all parents and later treated families, staff and volunteers to an impromptu singsong in the lounge area.
