Monty Python star Michael Palin has spoken out about his life without his beloved wife Helen, who passed away last year, and hinted at a feud between the Pythons.
Michael Palin, 80, has opened up about his heartache following the death of his wife Helen. Just weeks after celebrating their 57th wedding anniversary and days before his 80th birthday, Michael lost Helen, his childhood sweetheart and "the bedrock of his life".
The couple first met when they were just 16 during a family holiday on the Suffolk coast. Michael shared his memories of her as he spoke to the Mirror: "We were both 16, and we married in our early 20s... Helen was the bedrock of my life. Her quietly-wise judgment informed all my decisions and her humour and practical good sense was at the heart of our life together."

"We are still close as friends as we share so much," he commented, with a hint of sarcasm about sharing income that needs sorting out.
"Cambridge was of course better organised, ruthless and aggressive. Terry and I would write in separate groups, Gilliam on his own, Eric on his own, and John and Graham.
