Graham Thorpe's wife Amanda has revealed the former England cricketer took his own life after battling depression and anxiety for several years.
Aged just 55, Thorpe's death earlier this month plunged the cricket world into mourning for the popular star.
He enjoyed an impressive England career as an elegant batsman between 1993 and 2005, before spending 12 years in various coaching roles.
But Thorpe was hospitalised in May 2022 and declared 'seriously ill'.
Amanda Thorpe has now revealed in an interview with The Times that the former Surrey player attempted suicide two years ago before taking his own life earlier this month.
