BBC Eurovision tribute to Bonnie Tyler

Published: 9 July 2026

The BBC Eurovision team are greatly saddened to hear the news that Bonnie Tyler, who represented UK at Eurovision in 2013, passed away last night.

Bonnie was a music legend and we were truly honoured that such an iconic performer represented the UK.

Behind the scenes she was humble, huge fun and very kind. She brought energy to the contest and was a joy to spend time with. We all have such fond memories.

Our thoughts and best wishes go to Bonnie's family.
