Dad-to-be dies in crash before two months before baby daughter is due

A dad-to-be has died in a crash just months before his baby daughter is due to be born. Michael Hanley, 39, was pronounced dead at the scene when his motorbike left the carriageway of an A-road on Friday night.

His heartbroken family revealed his baby girl is due to be born in August. In an emotional statement, they said: "Michael was a much-loved fiancé, son, brother, uncle, friend and daddy-to-be to his baby girl who is due in August.

“Michael was taken away from us far too soon at the age of 39. He was known to be a gentleman by people who knew him and would light up the room with his smile, huge personality and the warmest of hugs.
