Australians will get the chance to publicly mourn their beloved Olivia Newton-John after her family accepted an offer of a state memorial service from their country’s government.
Daily Mail reports that Newton-John's niece Tottie Goldsmith accepted the offer on the family's behalf Thursday morning. A venue and date for the service have yet to be revealed but it is thought that there are plans for the tribute to be more of a concert than a formal service.
