Michael Owen has opened up on the death of staff member Jessica Whalley at his racing stables, describing it as the “worst day of my life”.
Whalley, a senior member of the travelling staff at Owen’s Manor House Stables in Cheshire and former beauty queen, collapsed and died after riding out last month.
Emergency services were called to the yard but were unable to revive Whalley whose death is not being treated as suspicious by Cheshire Police.
