Quote fallenangel1979 at 05 May 2015 9.24am Sadly i know all too well what Rio is going through, 16 months ago my two children and i lost my wife (though not to cancer). While i cannot understand why any man would cheat on someone he loves the fact is she stayed and they worked through it - does that mean he wont feel any grief, trust me he will. Nothing prepares you for this, i have lost friends and older family members but the loss of my wife was devastating. The children are at a similar age to Rio's and it has hit then harder than you can imagine. Regardless of what you feel for the man (cant say im a fan of his) respect that whether you think he did or didnt love her, he is hurting if not for the loss of his wife but for the pain of his children. That's the bit I can understand and have sympathy for. The kids. Thanks for your eloquent post. Big chest and massive boobs [Link]

Would there be the same level of care or grief if it wasn't Rio Ferdinand; of course not. No one gaves a s**t when its someone from the lower leagues or ordinary walks of life, you just have to get on with it. But if your famous, you deserve national sympathy and faux outpourings, as if your plight is special, and you're absolved and redeemed in the eyes of men.

Why?.........no real need to answer is there. Along with some here, I too don't give a f--k about Rio. To those who say this is not the time or place are wrong imo because when in the future would it be brought up? It wouldn't because it's not really on many peoples list of 'things to do' is it, so now is as good a time as any! If he loved his wife that much he'd have never have strayed. End of.

I am just adding some comments, not because I feel any particular liking for Rio, but because of some of the ignorant postings from people who obviously have no emotional intelligence. Had the thread been titled Rebecca Ellison it would have been ignored as few people probably recognise the name, just as if I had put on a thread titled Jane Richardson a few months ago when my wife died of breast cancer. By titling it with Rio Ferdinand, or any other famous person, it helps to raise awareness of cancer that may encourage a few people to assist in fund raising etc to try to work towards finding successful treatment or cure. It is not sham sympathy. Whatever faults he may have had in the past does not detract from what he will go through in the future. No amount of fame or money will help with having to care for young children crying themselves to sleep because mummy isn't around any more. Other family and friends are supportive, but day to day its just you and the kids dealing with day to day situations that can never feel the same again. Those of us that have lost wives to breast cancer, and several have posted heartfelt thoughts and comments, will realise that in a situation like this there is nothing to gain from macho keyboard posturing. It is more tactful in a situation like this to say nothing about him rather than the needless abuse, and would have allowed this thread to remain, as it was first intended to show respect for a sad loss of life.

Well written Tom. I guess sometimes we get carried away and forget that our words will have zero effect on people like Ferdinand. But there are many on here for whom loosely typed words will add an extra barb to pain they are feeling. To you and others in your situation I am sure we all have the deepest sympathy. Thoughtless but not heartless.
