Shane Warne was laid to rest at a private funeral on Sunday, with his loved ones seen paying respects at the service in Melbourne, Australia. The legendary cricketer died suddenly on March 5 at the age of 52 following a suspected heart attack. An autopsy later revealed he died from ‘natural causes’. On Sunday, his family and friends were seen at the St Kilda Football ground where they attended a private funeral service. There were emotional scenes as his children, including son Jackson, 23, and daughter Brooke, 24, pictured gently kissing his casket at the end of a procession where Tina Turner’s hit song The Best played in the background. Warne’s casket, which was draped in a St Kilda Saints scarf, was carried out by Jackson, Shane’s brother Jason and others, while his daughter Summer, 20, was seen in tears at the end of the service. Other music that featured during the ceremony included Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes’ (I’ve Had) The Time of My Life from the 1987 film Dirty Dancing, and Fix You by Coldplay. Guests, many of who wore St Kilda Saints scarves around their necks in honour of Warne’s favourite AFL team, were seen raising glasses as the casket was transported back to the hearse. Celebrity guests included Dannii Minogue, Michael Clarke and Merv Hughes, while his ex-wife Simon Callahan was also in attendance to pay her respects and support the children she shares with the late sports icon. A state memorial is scheduled to take place on March 30 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, so that the wider public can pay their respects.
