      His family said: “We are totally devastated by the loss of a wonderful husband and father who passed away peacefully yesterday after a long illness.
      “We would ask that privacy be given at this incredibly sad time to allow us to mourn the loss of this lovely man who we were so lucky to have had in our lives.”
      Venables met his wife Yvette in his father’s pub in Chingford, Essex in 1984.
      She accompanied the footballing icon to Barcelona when he was appointed as their manager, with the couple marrying in 1991.

      Yvette supported Terry after he was dismissed from his job as chief executive of Tottenham Hotspur by the club’s owner Alan Sugar in 1993.
      Terry was reinstated after gaining a temporary injunction – but went to lose a three-day High Court battle, with the judge ordering him to pay Sugar’s costs.
      Yvette also managed Terry’s Kensington dining club, Scribes West for seven years.
      However, the couple decided to sell it in 1997.

      Terry and Yvette later ran a boutique hotel and restaurant in Alicante, Spain.
      In a 1996 interview, Yvette said: “Terry has more than fulfilled all my romantic aspirations of what the man of my dreams would be like.
      “He is my best friend and confidant as well as my husband, and I don’t think any woman could ask for more.
      “I could certainly never have imagined what the future would bring when Terry and I first set eyes on each other.
      “But to this day I wouldn’t have changed anything.”
      Yvette welcomed Terry’s two grown-up daughters from his previous marriage to Christine McCann – while giving up her own own hopes of having children.
      She said: “I love children. But the one thing I would never do would be to jeopardise my relationship with Terry.
      “And I do think that babies can alter the balance in a marriage.”
      Yvette added: “Terry does nothing for himself at home. He wouldn’t know where the hoover was, let alone what to do with it.
      “He doesn’t do the washing-up, nothing.
      “And it’s probably my fault. His mum used to do everything for him and he’s got into that routine. It really doesn’t bother me.
      “If I was to say to him, ‘Oh, please pick up your shirt and put it in the washing machine’, I’m sure he’d do it.
      “But I’d never, ever put him in that position.”
      Despite being married to the Three Lions legend, Yvette hated being in the limelight.
      She said: “I particularly dislike going to big functions.
      “I never feel comfortable and dislike the fact that everyone is saying, ‘Oh look, there’s the England coach’, and then looking at me to see what his wife is like.”
      But Yvette added: “Terry is my best friend and I’m his. He’s the centre of my life.
      “He is also honest, kind and thoughtful, and we both share a good sense of humour.
      “It’s really important to be able to laugh, even when things get you down.”
      England manager Gareth Southgate has shared a heartwarming tribute to his “outstanding” former coach Terry Venables. More

      Who are Terry Venables’ children?

      by

      FOOTBALL legend Terry Venables was best known for leading England to the Euro semi-finals in ‘96, but off the pitch, he was a father and husband. But who are his children and what did he say about them? Here’s what we know.
      Terry Venables had two daughters, Tracey and Nancy, with his first wife, ChristineCredit: News Group Newspapers Ltd
      Who are Terry Venables’ children? 
      Former England manager Terry “El Tel” Venables sadly passed away at the age of 80.
      He had two daughters from his first marriage. 
      Little is known about Terry’s daughters, but according to a 2014 interview with the Guardian, it seems Terry’s daughters were both born in the late 60s – early 70s.
      One of Terry’s daughters, Tracey Graham, appears to have followed her father into the football industry.
      Read more on football
      In 1997, Terry took up a post managing Tottenham Hotspur, before being appointed chief executive in 1991. 
      In 1993, Terry was dismissed from his post, and it was reported at the time that Tracey Venables, was also sacked from her job as National Membership Secretary at the club.
      Tracey, 23 at the time, had apparently worked at Spurs for over a year. 
      It was reported at the time that Terry’s daughter Tracey appeared at the Spurs North London grounds gates and announced: “I’ve just this minute been sacked. I’m very angry. I had no idea this was going to happen.”
      Most read in Football
      His other daughter is called Nancy, but little is known about what she does for a living. 
      Terry also has at least one grandson, Sam, who he mentioned in his 2014 autobiography, Born to Manage.
      What did Terry Venables say about his children? 
      Terry seemed to keep his private life private and rarely mentioned his children or family in public. 
      In his 2014 autobiography, he mentions the stress that his glittering football career had on his family. 
      After being appointed Barcelona manager in 1984, he recalled that the move culminated in the end of his marriage to his first wife, but that both parents “wanted to ensure that our two daughters understood they still had loving parents”. 
      The family seem close, as Terry makes references to family holidays in Majorca. 
      Who is Terry Venables’ ex-wife Christine?
      Terry married his first wife, Christine McCann, a dressmaker, in 1966. 
      In his autobiography, Terry wrote that they had met when they were 16 years old and got married while he was playing at Chelsea, his first club. 
      They had “drifted apart”, and his move to Barcelona as manager in 1984 precipitated their divorce. 
      The split was “as amicable as possible”.
      Terry was soon in a relationship with his second wife, Yvette Bazire, who he had met in his dad’s pub in Chingford, London.
      Yvette accompanied Terry to Barcelona, and the pair tied the knot seven years later, in 1991. More

      Journalist Martinez made headlines at the World Cup last year when she produced a passionate speech at the end of an interview with Messi following Argentina’s semi-final triumph.
      She said: “The last thing I want to tell you, and is not a question, but I just wanted to say; the World Cup final is coming and sure, we all [Argentinians] want to win the Cup.
      “I just want to tell you that no matter the results, there’s something that no one can take from you and that is the fact you resonated with Argentinians, every single one. I’m being serious.
      “There’s no kid who doesn’t have your team shirt. No matter if it is a fake, real or made up one.
      “Truly, you made your mark in everyone’s life and that to me is beyond winning any World Cup.
      “No one can take that from you and this is my gratitude for such amount of happiness you bring to a lot of people.
      “I seriously hope you take these words into your heart because I really believe that’s more important than winning a World Cup and you already have it, so thank you captain.”

      Who is Wheeler Dealers’ host Mike Brewer and what is his net worth?

      by

      THE car-lover is best known by petrol-heads as the Wheeler Dealers presenter.But who is Mike Brewer, and what’s his net worth? Here’s what we know.
      Mike Brewer presents Wheeler Dealers on the Discovery Channel, with co-host Marc PriestleyCredit: Alamy
      Who is Mike Brewer?
      Mark Brewer is a British television presenter and car enthusiast. 
      He was born in Lambeth, London, on August 28, 1964.
      Brewer is best known as the host of Wheeler Dealers, the Discovery Channel’s car programme, which he has presented since 2003. 
      The premise of the show is that Brewer and the other presenters have a mission to save old vehicles, fix up old cars on a budget, and sell them to a new owner.
      Read more on television
      Brewer’s co-presenter has changed over the years: Edd China was his first co-host, followed by Ant Anstead, and most recently, Marc “Elvis” Priestley. 
      But Brewer is not only a presenter — alongside his television work, he is still active in the motor industry, and opened Mike Brewer Motors in 2012, a dealership in Sheffield. 
      He also launched the annual Used Car Award for used car dealers in the UK, a black-tie event in London. 
      What is Mike Brewer’s net worth?
      Brewer has an estimated net worth between $1.5 million and $4 million (£1.2 million to £3.2 million), owing to his long presenting career, and other business ventures. 
      Most read in Motorsport
      Some sources also indicate that his annual salary is $250,000. 
      Despite his motor industry fame, Brewer is famously down-to-earth.
      Is Mike Brewer married?
      Brewer is married to Michelle Brewer, whom he married in 1992.
      Michelle was born on June 9, 1962. 
      The pair are thought to live in Warwickshire and have one daughter together. 
      In a 2023 interview, Brewer opened up about the impact his career has had on his marriage, saying: “I’ve literally dedicated my life – 26 years actually – dedicated to this craft.
      “And I feel like it’s given me an amazing life but it’s also come at the cost of my marriage.”
      “But there comes a time when I look and I think, maybe I should spend more time with my wife? She drives me mad but I love being with her,” he added.
      Brewer often posts photos of Michelle with his Twitter followers, with captions such as: 
      “Happy Birthday to my beautiful wife  .. life with Michelle is wonderful, I’m so lucky. I love you tons”.
      Michelle, meanwhile, posts on Twitter under the username @MrsMBrewer. 
      In her Twitter bio, she describes herself as “The driving force behind #WheelerDealer”, so it appears the pair work as a team, and Michelle has a lot of involvement in the car industry. 
      What other shows has Mike Brewer presented?
      Brewer started his television career in 1997, on Channel 4’s Deals on Wheels, and ITV’s Pulling Power. 
      In 1999, he presented Driven on Channel 4 for one year. 
      Then in 2003, Wheeler Dealers started, on the Discovery Channel, which Brewer has presented ever since. 
      In 2009, Brewer presented another show on the Discovery Channel — Auto Trader.
      Since 2020, Brewer has also hosted the Wheeler Dealers spin-off show on the Discovery Channel, Wheeler Dealers: Dream Car. 
      For the Discovery Channel, Brewer has also presented Deals on Wheels, Wrecks to Riches, and Frontline Battle Machines.
      In 2020, Brewer took a turn co-hosting a show called The World’s Greatest Cars, on Quest. 
      Alongside television presenting, Brewer launched the Wheeler Dealer Podcast in February 2023, which has so far run for two series. 
      What cars has Mike Brewer owned?
      It comes as no surprise that Brewer has a significant collection of classic cars. 
      Brewer’s first car was a beige Mini 850cc, but he has driven a wide range of cars in the interim period. 
      In 2021, Brewer announced that despite ridiculing electric cars, he’d taken the plunge and bought himself a Porsche Taycan. 
      That same year, Brewer decided to auction off a selection of his own cars, many of which he’s restored and maintained himself, at the Silverstone Auctions at NEC Classic Motor Show.
      In the lot were a 1972 Citroen SM 2.7 four-seat coupé, a 1967 Mini Cooper 1275 S, a 1961 Austin Seven Mini 1961, a 1966 Ford Cortina Lotus Mk1, and a 2002 Ferrari 360 Spider F1.
      Despite his love for his collection of cars, Brewer’s schedule didn’t allow him the time to drive and car for all of them. 
      Brewer has previously said he believes classic cars “are there to be driven. I know that first hand because I’ve got a collection.”
      He said: “Buy something you love, buy something you’re interested in because when you love the car you’re much more likely to be willing to spend time on it, to look after it, to drive it.”
      Brewer also revealed that his Ford Fiesta Mk1 was stolen in June 2023, a car that had been restored by Brewer and Priestly to mark the 20th anniversary of Wheeler Dealers.
      Despite offering a £5000 reward for the card, as of November 2023, it has not been recovered. More

      Who is Christian Horner?
      Christian Horner, born November 16, 1973, in Leamington Spa, is a former British racing driver and the current Team Principal and CEO of the Red Bull Formula One team.
      Horner, who became the sports youngest Team Principal at just 31 years of age, has held this position since 2005.
      Principals are the face of their teams and the decision makers who come up with strategies to ensure the success of their drivers.
      He guided Red Bull to their first Constructors’ Championship in 2010 – the same season Sebastian Vettel won the Drivers’ Championship, becoming the youngest World Champion.
      Read More on Christian Horner
      In 2013, Horner received an OBE for services to motorsport in the Queen’s Birthday Honours, after guiding the Red Bull team to three drivers’ and constructors’ championships in a row.
      At the time, Horner said: “I just feel very honoured and privileged to receive it.
      “To be in the company of men and women who have achieved such great things for the country is something very, very special.”
      Has Christian Horner always been involved in motorsports?
      Prior to landing the Team Principal position, Horner began his motorsports career behind the wheel.
      Most read in Motorsport
      The former driver rose through the racing ranks in the late 1990s and enjoyed spells in Formula Renault, British F3 and Formula Two – and even founded his own team.
      However, at the end of 1998 Horner opted to focus on the management side of motorsport and hung up his helmet.
      He then worked in team management before joining Red Bull in 2004 and ascending to the top within a year. 
      In addition to his role as Team Principal and CEO of Oracle Red Bull Racing, Christian is also an Ambassador for the Wings for Life charity.

      The couple, who have been together since 2014, tied the knot on May 15, 2015, at St Mary’s Church in Woburn.
