Steve Wright's family 'embroiled in a toxic feud as his elderly father, 94, marries carer 43 years his junior' - a year after the radio DJ's death


Steve Wright's family are reportedly embroiled in a toxic feud, a year on from the DJ's death.

The publication reports that Steve's brother Laurence was particularly upset with the union, so much so that he refused to attend the wedding, which took place in September last year at Worthing Library in West Sussex. Laurence, a director of a company in the health industry, says his older brother's tendency for eating out at restaurants combined with his reluctance to talk about various 'health issues', keeping his family in the dark, were the main factors behind his shock death at the age of 69. He said Steve's favourite place to eat out was the RAC club in London, which consists of many restaurants, and he chose to ignore home cooked food because he didn't have the time to prepare meals, as he was so consumed by his job.
