Welsh rugby's touching tribute to Morgan Ridler after Wales star's nephew dies

Tributes have been paid from across the Welsh sporting world to Morgan Ridler after the inspirational three-year-old died following a battle with cancer.

Morgan, from Swansea, captured the heart of the nation after being diagnosed with a rare and complex form of cancer in October 2021. He sadly died on Wednesday morning after being moved to palliative care, with his parents Natalie and Matthew paying tribute to their "beautiful boy" as he "started on his next great adventure". He would have turned four in July.

The inspiration behind Morgan's Army Charitable Foundation, the three-year-old was given an unforgettable day last week as hundreds of people lined the streets outside his home, while he was also surprised with a drive-by from dozens of supercars as well as an aeroplane flight and a trip in a fire engine.
