Almost a week after his sudden death at the age of 52, Shane Warne’s body has arrived back in Australia.
A private jet carrying the Australian cricket legend’s body touched down at Essendon Fields Airport in Melbourne at around 8.30pm on Thursday night. The charter flight was moved into a private hangar.
Warne’s body was flown back by a company owned by Australian millionaire Terry Peabody.
Fans and friends, including Warne’s personal assistant Helen Nolan, were at the airport to greet the private plane.
In a heartbreaking image, a woman believed to be Warne’s mother Brigitte was spotted inside the hangar holding a white rose as her son’s body was returned home.
