Peter Whittingham's brother reveals the pain still suffered by his family after Cardiff City legend's tragic death

Peter Whittingham's brother has spoken for the first time about his family's enduring heartache following the tragic and untimely passing of the Cardiff City icon.

Whittingham, a bona fide legend in this little corner of the world, sadly passed away at the tender age of 35 back in March 2020. He had been out watching Wales play England in the Six Nations when he lost balance and fell through a fire door at a Barry pub. He fell down eight steps, hit his head and, despite surgery to relieve pressure on his brain, ultimately passed away after two weeks on life support.
