Janey Godley has been awarded an honorary doctorate degree by the University of Glasgow with her daughter Ashley Storrie describing it as bringing her ‘so much joy’. The comedian revealed last month that she has been receiving end of life care and would be moving into the Prince and Princess of Wales hospice in Glasgow. She had revealed she had been battling ovarian cancer in 2021 but despite being given the all-clear in 2022, it then came back and spread.
She’s been awarded the honorary doctorate by the university and the 63-year-old’s daughter believes it is bringing her a lot of joy as she approaches the end of her life and explained her pride. A post on Instagram said: “Thank you University of Glasgow for bestowing upon my mum the honorary degree of doctor of the University of Glasgow. This has brought her so much joy in the final beats of her life.
Janey is so honoured, and I am so immensely proud of her. I am always proud of her. Congratulations Doctor Godley.
