England footballer Gemma Wiseman tragically died days before Christmas at the age of just 33.
Wiseman represented the United Kingdom at the World Deaf Football Championship in 2016, winning bronze with the side. Her body was discovered by a member of the public on December 16 near Wilkinson Road in Rackheath, near Norwich.
She is survived by her wife Laura and daughter, 3, who are “devastated” by her passing. Since the tragic news, a GoFundMe has been set up which has already raised £7,500.
A statement posted on the page says “On December 16, 2023, Gemma sadly took her own life. Her family and friends are absolutely devastated.
“Gemma was a kind and caring person with a great sense of humour. Everywhere she went she brought laughter and energy with her and easily made friends with anyone who was lucky enough to meet her.
“Gemma leaves behind her devoted wife, Laura, and three-year-old daughter who are at a complete loss without her. We are kindly asking for donations to help pay for Gemma’s funeral and give her the send-off she truly deserves. So, if you are able to donate anything at all this would be hugely appreciated.
“Laura is extremely grateful for everyone’s help and support at this difficult time. It’s ok to not be ok.”
An inquest into her death was opened at Norfolk Coroner’s Court…
