Holby City star Rosie Marcel suffers a devastating loss

On Instagram, Rosie shared a photo of a dismantled bee hive in a wheel barrow.

She then shared a series of photos showing that the bees that she had been keeping had died.

The medical drama star captioned the post: “We had a feeling our bees hadn’t survived the multiple frosts even though we’d protected them. When we opened up the hive today we realised they’d perished. I felt so bad. They were all huddled together.

“All the frames were full of honey and brood. We’re so sad. They were an amazing colony and it feels like a horrible waste. We will clean it out and start again and learn from our mistakes

Sadly, Rosie’s bees had died in the frost.

However, Rosie has reassured fans that she will learn from her mistakes and keep another colony once she has had time to grieve the loss of this one.

She’s also a patron for the animal charity The Last Chance Hotel.

Rosie herself owns pet cats and dogs, recently posting a photo of her cats snuggling up with each other.

Sharing a picture of her two marmalade coloured cats, Rosie wrote: “I think it’s safe to say that Gadget has settled in nicely. In the first pic Gadget had just told Milo a very filthy joke.”

Awwww!
