Stuart Pearce’s family have issued a statement after the Nottingham Forest legend’s son Harley tragically died at the age of 21. Harley was killed in a tractor accident.
“Our family is truly shocked and utterly heartbroken at the loss of our cherished son and devoted brother, Harley,” the statement read. “A soul who left an unforgettable imprint on all who knew him.
“He was a golden boy with an infectious smile, and this shocking tragedy will leave a huge hole in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to have known him. With a quiet, understated strength and deep kindness, we are so proud of the young man he had become, exhibiting a wonderful work ethic and entrepreneurial spirit in the farming industry.
“He will always be our shining star. Rest in Peace, our beautiful son and brother. You will never ever be forgotten.”
According to reports from The Mail, a source claimed Harley lost control of his tractor after it suffered a blow out. Emergency services are believed to have been called to the scene of the incident on Thursday afternoon last week.
Harley, who lived near Marlborough in Wiltshire, ran a company called Harley Pearce Agricultural Service. His job saw him conduct work on farms around the Wiltshire and Gloucestershire border.
