Darren Fletcher’s Wife: The "Saint" Behind United’s Interim Manager
Following the dismissal of Rúben Amorim, Manchester United has placed first-team coach Darren Fletcher in temporary charge. In light of this appointment, The Sun has highlighted the influential role of his wife, Hayley Fletcher, who has been a pillar of support throughout the Scotsman's turbulent career. The couple, who married in June 2010 at St Ambrose Catholic Church, celebrated their wedding with a lavish reception at the five-star Lowry Hotel, attended by approximately 150 guests.
Hayley’s resilience was tested early on when she faced a terrifying ordeal in 2009. While Darren was in Milan for a Champions League clash, armed intruders broke into the couple's £2 million Manchester mansion, threatening Hayley with a knife and demanding her engagement ring. Despite this trauma, she remained by his side during his most difficult professional challenge: a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis in 2010. Fletcher has frequently described his wife as a "saint" for supporting him during years of debilitating illness that saw him housebound before a successful surgery in 2013.
Today, the Fletchers are a central family within the Manchester United ecosystem. Their twin sons, Jack and Tyler, born in 2007, are currently rising stars within the club's academy. Both teenagers are working toward breaking into the first team, potentially following in their father's footsteps. As Darren steps into the managerial spotlight to steady the club, his family’s deep-rooted history with the Red Devils serves as a backdrop to his effort to restore stability at Old Trafford.
