Sir Roger Moore’s son Jaffa Moore was able to capture touching footage of his father in his final days, after the James Bond star agree to appear in his music video for single You and I.
The musician admitted he becomes “choked up” at the video, as it turned out to be the last time he saw his late father.
In an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk, the musician spoke about his film legend dad, as well as collaborating with the late Glee actress Naya Rivera on the heartfelt single for his album Photograph.
Speaking about filming for the video, which is in aid of UNICEF, the star recalled how he had been “lucky” to record his father shortly before he died.
“In the last days of his life, I actually went to see him when he was doing chemo and that was the last day I actually saw him – in the video,” Jaffa remembered.
“So every time I see it I choke up a little and get a ball in my throat.
“And I think, ‘How lucky am I to have that footage of him on the last day when I last saw him.’
“I got on a plane the next day and he passed two days afterwards. I was in Los Angeles and I was the last to really find out because of the timezone.
Jaffa’s music video for single You and I features a whole host of huge celebrities in its music video.

“And one of the characters in the video called me up and I thought, ‘That’s very strange, why is she calling me up at seven in the morning,” Jaffa explained.
“And she said, ‘Oh my god, darling, haven’t you switched on the news?’ And then that was it.
“And then of course afterwards, with Naya passing, this was a tragedy for her family and also, you know, I just wanted her to be part of this campaign.”
Naya was declared missing after she failed to return from a boating excursion on Lake Piru near her home in California on July 8, 2020.
After her rented boat with 4-year-old son, Josey Dorsey, was located and a search was carried out, she was presumed dead the next day.
Her body was later found on July 13, 2020, and the star was pronounced dead from accidental drowning at the age of 33.
“It would be great to be sitting with her now,” Jaffa said. “But I know they’re both looking down on us now.”
Jaffa Moore’s new album ‘Photograph’ featuring single ‘You and I’ Ft Naya Rivera is available now.
