Jul 10 2009

A former Scottish international footballer's wife who never fully recovered after undergoing botched cosmetic surgery in 2002 has died.

Denise Hendry, 42, the wife of former Scotland captain Colin Hendry, had been in intensive care at Salford Royal Hospital for several weeks suffering from a serious infection after undergoing an operation to correct the surgery.

Hendry, 43, the ex-Manchester City, Blackburn Rovers and Rangers central defender, had been at her bedside throughout the ordeal.
