In February 2020, former Glamorgan and England cricketer Steve James and his family’s life changed forever after the sudden death of his daughter Bethan aged, 21.
James described the events as having ‘devastated’ wife Jane, his and son Rhys’ lives – with the tragic events made worse by him missing Bethan’s death.
James, who works as a journalist, was away covering a Six Nations match in Ireland when Bethan was taken seriously ill, with his journey back delayed by poor weather and she died before he got home.
Bethan had battled illness before, having undergone a bowel operation at a young age, and she was diagnosed with Crohn's disease in the year before her death.
