“I haven’t seen you in over a year probably and I haven’t seen you since the tragic events that happened in Manchester,” Jimmy said.

“I know it’s just tough for everybody, tough for fans and tough for you, and I know you haven’t done any interviews, and I understand that,” he went on.

“I just wanted to say, thank you so much for coming on the show and for being strong and for entertaining and for showing up and going back to Manchester and doing a benefit.
