Barry McGuigan moved I'm A Celebrity viewers to tears while emotionally discussing his grief, following the death of his daughter Danika in 2019.
Barry shared that the film received critical acclaim following its release, and Danika had 'done all this work to get to where she was,' before her passing. Wildfire focuses on two reunited sisters who discover secrets from their mother's past, with Nika playing one sibling with Nora-Jane Noone. 'It is a fitting tribute to her legacy and exceptional talent. My sincere thanks to Wildcard Distribution, the amazing volunteers in Clones Film Festival and the support of all in Monaghan County Council.'
The actress filmed a part in the thriller, but died less than a year before it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2020 She struggled with her health from a young age, after being diagnosed with Leukaemia when she was just 11 years old. On the fifth anniversary of her death, the boxing champion wrote on social media: '5 years today Nika, we miss you so much'
'As a family we are devastated and ask for complete privacy during this difficult period to allow us to grieve for our Nika.' After about a year and a half out of school, Danika returned to school - and in a heartbreaking conversation with her father - said she wouldn't get sick again. She just got on with her life, Barry said.
