Hollyoaks star calls for no attendance at stepfather's funeral: detectives believe he is the murderer

According to The Sun: Callum and his sister Amanda Kerr also want their mother not to be commemorated at the funeral of the man.

British expats Andrew and Dawn Kerr died by suicide in February in France.

Financial expert Andrew was found hanged, while Dawn suffered multiple head injuries.

Police initially investigated the case as a murder linked to his former employer, but they are now considering it as a murder followed by suicide.

Callum and his sister wrote in a social media statement: 'It would be inappropriate to associate her memory with a ceremony honoring a man who, based on all available information, could be responsible for her death.'

They emphasized that the assumption remains murder followed by suicide, and there is no evidence of third-party involvement.

They plan to climb Mount Etna in Sicily on the day that would have been their mother's 58th birthday.

A fundraising page in their mother's name in support of the charity Women's Aid has raised over £3,400.

'In February our mom passed away. There are no words to describe how this has affected us. We hope this challenge brings goodness to the world in her name. We want to create something that reflects her true nature and changes what people see when they search for her name. This is for Dawn Kerr always,' the statement said.

Career and death of the HOLLYOAKS star's mother

Dawn's son Callum, known for his role as police officer George Kiss in the tv series HOLLYOAKS on Channel 4 from 2020 to 2021.

In addition, Callum also appeared in the Netflix series Virgin River, where he played young Everett, Mel's father in the latest season.

He has over 135,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, and he released a new track Cold Beer Cold just a few hours after his mother's death.

Dawn was found in front of her house, partially undressed, while Andrew died of asphyxiation.

The news discusses the decision of HOLLYOAKS star Callum Kerr and his sister not to attend their father's funeral, considering him a possible murderer of their mother. They also united to honor their mother's memory and raise funds for Women's Aid charity.
