Renata Ford, the wife of the late Rob Ford and sister-in-law of Premier Doug Ford, has died.
The premier confirmed the news in a statement, saying, “My heart breaks for Stephanie and Dougie. They’ve been through so much at such young ages, and losing their mom is incredibly painful.”
“We ask that people respect their privacy during this very difficult time,” continued his statement.
Renata was best known for standing by her late husband through his many controversies as Toronto’s mayor, and later ran as a People’s Party of Canada candidate in the 2019 fall federal election.
