Lead guitarist Mark - who formed the band with Danny and drummer Glen Power in 2001 - passed away in hospital on April 14 last year from an undisclosed illness.
His friend of 30 years and The Script's lead singer Danny, 43, appeared on Lorraine on Wednesday, where he spoke about dealing with Mark's death.
