Desiree Golling, 34, died while living in Dubai, with her family members paying tribute
A Liverpool woman who died suddenly while living in Dubai has returned to Merseyside where she will be laid to rest. Desiree Golling, who was originally from Liverpool, had moved to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from Liverpool in the years before her death.
Tributes poured in following her death on May 11 at the age of 34. Writing on Facebook, mum Paula Golling, from Halewood said: “Doing life without you babe doesn’t seem real I am going to miss our voice notes where you say ‘hi mum, just checking in’.
“You was the most inspirational person, everyone loved you babe, how my heart aches right now. I will see your beautiful face soon, goodnight my sweet Desi.”
Desiree is believed to have been living in the UAE where she had previously worked in real estate and marketing. Her most recent job, according to LinkedIn, was as a business consultant at Property Finder in the Middle Eastern country.
Following the news of her death last month, her funeral details have been shared by Richard and Shannon Jenkins Funeral Directors, based on Allerton Road.
The funeral directors said: “Desiree will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by all her loving family and friends.
“Funeral service will take place at St Mary’s Church, Church Road, Woolton, Liverpool, L25 5JF, on Monday 6th July 2026 at 1:15pm, followed by cremation at Springwood Crematorium, Rosemary Chapel, Springwood Avenue, Liverpool, L25 7UN, at 2:30pm. Family flowers only, please.
“Donations, if desired, in memory of Desiree, may be made to KIND via: https://kind.org.uk/donate.”
Among those to pay tribute was her cousin Amber Harrison, a star of the ITV sitcom G’Wed, who wrote on Instagram: “Our beautiful big cousin Desiree. Loved by so many, you will be missed.
“Our family will never be the same without you. Our queen of Dubai. I hope you are in a much better place you beautiful soul.”
Autumn Harrison wrote: “Our gorgeous Desiree, my big cousin and best friend. Your beautiful soul shined right through you, absolutely stunning from the inside out. Yours was the warmest heart and the kind of energy that made anyone around you drawn to you
“You didn’t just care about people, you made people feel truly loved and I felt your love so deeply. Always the first to comment on posts, always reminding us how gorgeous we were, always telling me that life is too short to care too much and to just do what makes you happy. I promise I’ll carry that with me forever, for you.
“You were the one that made every family occasion, every party, every deep conversation. You’re the only person I’d listen to a three minute voice note from.
“We haven’t stopped talking about you in the group chat, waiting for you to voice note back like you always do and make us howl one way or another.
“There will never be another you Des. Oh our beautiful Des, I can’t believe I am writing this. Family is everything, and you lived by this..You made every second with all of us count and gave us memories to cherish for life for this I couldn’t be more grateful.
“You adored us all and that’s something I will always feel when I think of you. We will all miss you so so much and no words are big enough to explain the gap that you have left in our family and in each of our hearts. I promise to be there for your mum Jas & Luna.
“I love you forever & always angel girl. One in a million.”
