In March 2023 Bernadette’s death was announced by her sister Carol’s partner Rick Jango in a statement on social media, as she paid tribute to one of ‘the loveliest people’ he knew.

Alongside the post which was shared on March 21, were pH๏τos taken of Bernadette while on Gladiators, which is what she was best known for.

The tribute read: ‘It is with great sadness that I have to tell you of my partner’s younger sister Bernadette Hunt.

The popular 90s programme saw members of the public battle it out against the show's cast of bodybuilders and gymnasts, known as Gladiators

‘Most people will remember her as Falcon From the hit TV Show Gladiators.

‘I had the privilege to be in her company a few times and I have to say she was one of the most loveliest people I have ever met.

‘She never had a bad word to say about anyone, indeed she was always known as the nicest Gladiator, always stopping to speak and sign autographs for anyone.

‘She had been battling cancer for a number of years until sadly she lost the fight. RIP Bernie.’
