BBG News

23-year-old Summer Warne, Shane Warne’s daughter, paid an emotional tribute to her deceased father on TikTok.

In a profoundly unfortunate turn of events that occurred on March 4, 2022, I found myself grappling with the loss of a beloved figure in the world of spin, who succumbed to a heart attack at the tender age of 52. This tragic incident took place while he was enjoying a holiday retreat on the idyllic Thai island of Koh Samui, nestled amidst its luxurious villas.

Over the summer, she shared two pictures: one featuring her father with the family pet, and another capturing a moment at the grave of a renowned cricketer.

The up-and-coming actress additionally wrote a comment expressing regret for not being present during her father’s final moments, as she felt profound sadness about it.

Summer shared her tribute as part of a growing trend on TikTok known as Deceased Love Ones.

Here, I pour out my heartfelt tributes, echoing sentiments of countless others, as we commemorate our beloved ones who’ve moved on. Each post, a poignant snapshot, carries a caption that mirrors the depths of our profound sorrow and longing.

In her tribute, Summer chose to display only three photographs in a slideshow, starting with one of herself accompanied by the caption: “I’m fine, I can always reach out to Dad.

As I, the overjoyed admirer, traverse through the gallery, my eyes are instantly drawn to the second exhibit. There, in that cherished frame, stands Shane, beaming from ear to ear, cradling a furry friend close to his heart. The caption beneath, penned in a manner reminiscent of Summer’s father, adds an extra touch of warmth and nostalgia to the scene. This is a moment I wish I could step into and cherish alongside them.

‘Hello I’m her dad Shane,’ the tribute begins.

‘I passed away three years ago. She hates that she wasn’t with me in my final moments.’

Summer also named checked Shane’s signature car – a 2024 Mercedes-Benz G-class wagon. 

‘Every time she a sees a G Wagon she hopes its me,’ Summer continued in her father’s ‘voice’.

As a devoted follower, I can’t help but feel that our shared moments were somehow abridged. Each instance of excitement that comes my way, I yearn to share with you in detail.

‘I’m there SJ,’ Summer wrote sadly as her father, ‘just not physically.’

The final image in the collection is a picture of our beloved pet dog resting near Shane’s grave, in the beautiful town of Sorrento, Victoria.

A touching homage prompted an emotional reaction from TikTok users, who flooded Summer with messages of encouragement.

‘You never get over the loss of a parent at any age,’ shared one follower on the post.

‘Remember you have the whole world supporting you three kids.’

As a compassionate supporter, I deeply regret to inform you that he is no longer with us in person. However, his affection for your children was profoundly evident, making it clear that nothing meant more to him. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy, love, and prayers during this challenging time.

‘Your dad would be so proud of yourself and your siblings,’ messaged another TikTokker on the post.

They went on to say, ‘Even though he isn’t with us in person, his spirit lives on within you and serves as a guiding force throughout your life.’

I can hardly conceive of your grief, but it’s clear that you cherished him deeply. To me, he was an unforgettable legend. I wish you comfort and healing. Farewell, Warnie.)

I’m absolutely thrilled about it, but let me tell you, my heart skips a beat every time I think about the fact that the legendary Shane is blessed with three incredible kids – Summer, who’s 25 now, Jackson at 27, and the youngest, Brooke. He shared these gems with his ex-wife Simone Callahan! What a family they make!

At the time of Shane’s death Thai police said he was staying in a villa with four friends.

At approximately 5 pm local time, when someone from the group attempted to rouse Shane, it was discovered that he was not responsive.

The Shane Warne Legacy, which provides free heart tests, was founded by the three siblings.

Warne is recognized as one of the greatest cricket players ever, having taken 708 Test wickets with an average of 25.41 over 145 games from 1992 to 2007.
