‘[Her death] was never real. It still kind of isn’t. There are periods now in our New York residence when I hear the door opening, especially the first couple of years… Any time I hear that door opening, I still think I’m going to hear her.’
The couple had met in 1993 during a Broadway performance and started dating. They married in 1994 on 3rd July. The couple had two children together: Michael who was born on 22 June 1995 in Dublin, Ireland, and Daniel who was born on 27 August 1996 in the city of New York.
Liam had donated Natasha’s organs after her death. Liam has three citizenships-Irish, British, and American. He now resides in the USA with his sons.
There was a rumor that he has converted to Islam but his publicist denied it and said that he had an affection for Adhan, the prayer call in Islam and it had started when he was filming for Taken 2 in Istanbul. Liam had said:
“By the third week, it was like I couldn’t live without it. It really became hypnotic and very moving for me in a very special way. Very beautiful.”
