Roy Keane's daughter Caragh admits she 'thought life was over' after being diagnosed with an incurable illness aged 25


Roy Keane 's daughter Caragh has admitted she 'thought' life was over after being diagnosed with an incurable illness aged 25.

In 2021, Caragh was diagnosed with Lupus, an incurable autoimmune condition which occurs when the body's immune system mistakes its own tissues and organs as foreign, making proteins called autoantibodies that attack them. According to the Mayo Clinic, the disease - famously suffered by singer Selena Gomez- causes inflammation, affecting joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart and lungs. The beauty, who is the second-oldest child of Manchester United legend Roy, 53, and wife Theresa Doyle, also credited her parents for saving her life as she recalled struggling so much that she couldn't leave her bed for over a month.
