She has also stated how proud she is of Penny and Adele both. She's admitted that she does not expect special treatment for being the grandmother of Adele, but she is sad to say that she has not seen Adele for a year. Doreen still remains incredibly close with Penny, though, stating she always visits, takes her shopping, and runs her to her appointments. Doreen still shares a long-lasting and beautiful relationship with her granddaughter, though, even though she is so far away.
