Gabby Logan has paid a heartfelt tribute to her father, Terry Yorath, the football legend known for his impressive career with Leeds United and Wales, who sadly passed away at 75 after a short illness. Gabby described her dad as a warrior on the field and a kind-hearted man off it. Sharing her final moments with him, she revealed how they debated if roast or mashed potatoes were better with calves’ liver—his choice meal for when he got home. But sadly, that wasn’t to be.
From captaining club and country to touching countless lives, Terry’s legacy will live on. In a heartfelt post, Gabby expressed gratitude for the love and support, sharing how comforting it was to hear stories from those he impacted. Reflecting on the shock of his passing, she found solace knowing he is now reunited with her late brother, Daniel.
The football world and those who knew Terry are mourning the loss of an iconic figure. Leeds manager Daniel Farke shared his condolences, emphasising Terry’s indelible mark on the club and community. Beyond his successful playing career with Leeds, Coventry City, and others, his legacy thrives through his children—Gabby, Louise, and Jordan—and his five grandchildren.
Gabby’s son Reuben also honoured his grandad with a touching Instagram post, saying, “Rest well Grandad, you are in a better place now with Daniel. Love you.” This emotional farewell reminds us of the deep bond Terry shared with his family and the profound impact he left on and off the pitch. RIP Terry Yorath, you will be dearly missed but never forgotten. 🕊️
