In a somber development, Lady Cathy Ferguson, the spouse of former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, has tragically departed at the age of 84, leaving behind her husband and their three sons, as reported by the Mirror.

In an official statement released by the Ferguson family, they expressed their profound sorrow, saying, “We are deeply saddened to confirm the passing yesterday of Lady Cathy Ferguson, survived by her husband, three sons, two sisters, 12 grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
