Ben Cull tells girlfriend Daisy Morrison ‘3 more lifetimes wouldn’t be enough’ in tragic last post before cancer death
BEN CULL told his girlfriend Daisy Morrison “3 more lifetimes wouldn’t be enough” in his tragic last social media post.
The former England youth football international died aged 23 after a long battle with cancer.
The ex-Southampton academy player began battling Ewing’s sarcoma at the tender age of 17.
Cull’s condition worsened in recent months, which prompted him to propose to his long-time girlfriend.
However, heartbroken Daisy has announced that he has passed away from the rare bone and soft-tissue disease in hospital in a brave and emotional Instagram post.
Now the tragic final social media post from the late football prodigy has emerged – and it was a heartbreaking romantic message to his partner.
Cullen shared three images of him embracing his loved one at the Macmillan hospice he spent his final days at.
Along with a love heart emoji, he captioned it with: “Even 3 more lifetimes wouldn’t have been enough.”
Daisy responded to the post with a broken heart and then shooting star emoji and the words: “No time frame would ever be enough darling.”
Cullen began his football career by being snapped up by Southampton’s academy.
He became part of their Under 18s squad in the summer of 2015.
Cullen’s talents were also recognised at international level, and he won two caps for England‘s Youth team.
But his cancer battle sadly cut short what seemed to be a promising career in 2018.
