Heartbreak for Legendary AFL Family
The AFL community is mourning the loss of Keith, the beloved father of Alex Fevola. Alex, partner of former AFL star and media figure Brendan Fevola, shared the sad news last Friday, calling her father “indestructible” and “young at heart.”
“A few days ago I lost my Dad. It has been so difficult to come to terms with. My Dad seemed indestructible, young at heart and full of life. RIP Dad, you will be missed forever, always in my heart.”
Brendan Fevola also paid tribute to Keith, remembering him as a man who brought joy and warmth to their family.
“We are going to miss your humour and quick wit. I’m gonna miss having a cold one with you, mate. Most of all the girls will miss the love their granddad gave them, and Alex the love, friendship and trust you both had with each other till the very end – the long chats that ended in laughter. Love ya, mate.”
Alex and Brendan, who reunited after their 2014 separation, share four daughters – Mia, Leni, Lulu, and Tobi. Mia, Brendan’s stepdaughter, also shared a touching message for her late grandfather.
“On Friday, heaven gained an angel. Rest in peace, granddad, love you forever. Never failed to make us laugh.”
