Stephanie Morgan on the lasting affect of the Munich air disaster survived by her fiancé.

Stephanie Morgan was at work in Swansea when she heard the plane carrying her footballing fiancé crashed in Munich with the Busby Babes on board.

Stephanie Morgan was 17 when the plane carrying Manchester United’s Busby Babes crashed in Munich in 1958. Her fiancé Kenny was on board, the youngest of the Babes and last player to be found in the wreckage. A Welshman was among the 23 dead – and while Kenny was among the 21 who survived could he ever be the same player again? Peter Jackson talks to Stephanie about Kenny’s return to Swansea, how he returned to playing that season despite having spent weeks in hospital, and how the tragedy affected both of them.
