Rachel then added: “There’s little signs of Paul everywhere. On the video shoot, there was a vinyl coaster and it said ‘Good Times’ on it. That was his song.”
The band also revealed what they experienced on that fateful day when they heard the news that Paul passed away.
Adding to The Sun, Tina Barrett said: “I was at home with my son, we were just watching TV and I picked up the call.

“At first I was just like, ‘This isn’t real . . . it can’t be real. You’ve made a mistake’. I still can’t believe it’s real.”
