David Warner’s wife reveals she miscarried after ball-tampering scandal; says loss was due to stress and difficult flight home from South Africa

The wife of disgraced cricketer David Warner revealed on Thursday that she suffered a miscarriage in the aftermath of her husband’s part in a ball-tampering scandal that rocked the game.

She attributed the loss to stress and an arduous flight home, describing the couple’s devastation at realising she was miscarrying.

“I called Dave to the bathroom and told him I was bleeding. We knew I was miscarrying. We held one another and cried,” she told the Australian Women’s Weekly magazine.

“The miscarriage was a heartbreaking end to a horror tour.

“The ordeal from the public humiliations to the ball-tampering had taken its toll and, from that moment, we decided nothing will impact our lives like that again.”
