Oti Mabuse's niece Tlhogi passes away aged 28

While his father played a bit of football, his uncle James Cook MBE held the British and European super-middleweight boxing belts in the early 1990s. When he retired after a 12-year career and 25 victories, he formed the renowned Pedro Youth Club as a haven for disadvantaged kids reared in the gang culture of Hackney’s notorious ‘Murder Mile.’

Warne’s son Jackson, 22, proved yet again that he was prepared to step up for his family in his father’s absence as he led his sisters Brooke, 24, and Summer, 20, to a waiting chauffeur and liaised with security at St Kilda Football Club where Warne’s funeral was held.

Mr Ranganathan made clear his allegiance to the West Sussex town – whose other notable residents include England manager Gareth Southgate and Crown actress Erin Doherty – by calling his 2018 autobiography Straight Outta Crawley: Memoirs Of A Distinctly Average Human Being.

The comedian, who replaced Anne Robinson as the host of The Weakest Link, has previously spoken about his impoverished upbringing, including the challenges faced by his family when their home was repossessed after his accountant father was jailed for two years for fraud.

Warne´s three children, parents and friends including retired Test captains Mark Taylor and Allan Border and former England skipper Michael Vaughan, were among about 80 guests at the service on Sunday.

‘I even got gifts and cards sent to the club and it really felt like people were going the extra mile to support me. The feedback from fans, not just the Ross County supporters, came from all around the world.’

A state memorial at the Melbourne Cricket Ground – the scene of many of Warne’s iconic bowling moments including a hat-trick against England in 1994 and his 700th test wicket on Boxing Day in 2006 – will take place on March 30 and will be open to the public.

Of the six sons reared by their Jamaican and Grenadian parents, Charles-Cook was the most slightly built. Even so, he spent school holidays in his uncle’s gym, where Dame Elizabeth Taylor was an unlikely patron until 2011. Any ambitions he harboured of a career in the boxing ring were curtailed by two things. One was his size and the other was the desire to follow in the footsteps of his two older siblings. Football came a good deal easier to all of them.

‘Decided to surprise my family and not tell them I’m coming home just to see their expressions, mom was speechless (touched me all to see if I was real, dad couldn’t stop smiling and my god mother cried her eyes off)

The Melbourne park, which is normally open and available for kids to play on when there aren’t games scheduled, has become a fortress surrounded by security in blue uniforms and patrolling police officers.

‘I’ve lost my niece, my little sister, my best friend ☹️ Life dealt you the harshest card but you always chose to win, you always fought to come out the other side above it all with a smile on your face.

Ross County are happy to offer a platform for the rehabilitation of players who need a budge back up the ladder and, if a return to English football is on the cards, then he will always be grateful to the Staggies for breathing life into a career which started alongside Joe Aribo at Charlton before stalling slightly at Gillingham.
