Olympic hero Katie Archibald has bravely revealed how she desperately tried to resuscitate her partner Rab Wardell before his sudden death on Tuesday. Wardell tragically fell into a cardiac arrest whilst in bed alongside Archibald.
Despite both the efforts of the Olympian and the paramedics who arrived, Wardell was unable to be resuscitated and passed away just two days after becoming the Scottish Cross Country champion. Following his death, the cross country bike rider's partner Archibald has bravely opened up on social media about the tragic circumstances.
Taking to Twitter she wrote: "I think you've heard that Rab died yesterday morning. I still don't understand what's happened; if this is real; why he'd be taken now - so healthy and happy."
