Boxer Ricky Hatton’s manager of more than 20 years, Paul Speak, found the boxing legend after he let himself into his home following concerns, it has emerged

Ricky Hatton’s manager heartbreakingly discovered the body of his close friend at the boxer’s home, it has emerged.

Paul Speak, who also served as Hatton’s “confidant”, is said to “deserve a little bit of love” after making the devastating find on Sunday morning.

He entered the boxing legend’s property in Hyde, Greater Manchester, using his own key after Hatton, 46, failed to appear at a boxing event on Saturday evening.

Hatton became one of Britain’s most popular fighters during his career, which peaked in 2005 when he became world champion in his home city of Manchester. He went on to fight Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, losing both – defeats which plunged him into a deep depression.

Boxing pundit Steve Bunce revealed last night: “He (Speak) filled me in on a few details about the Friday night and the Saturday night. On the Saturday night, Ricky hadn’t gone to a boxing show… Speaky had found out Sunday morning.

“Speaky went round and let himself into the house. In fact it was Paul Speak who found his great friend and the people’s champion Ricky Hatton.

“Speaky deserves a little bit of love. You can’t even begin to imagine. It’s a 25-year relationship they’ve had as his commercial and business manager, but more than that it’s his close friend. It’s his confidant… I can’t think of another relationship like it in sport to be perfectly honest. So Speaky was the one that found him.”

According to to Speak’s LinkedIn, the pair began working together in August 1997, when Speak began his role as Hatton’s agent.

They had worked together ever since and, when Hatton retired from boxing and founded Hatton Promotions, ex-policeman Speak took on the role of operations manager.

Speak has yet to speak out following his best friend’s death, but he was seen laying a flowers tribute outside the boxing legend’s home.

Fans, friends, and family of ‘The Hitman’ are mourning following his tragic death after he failed to show up at the gym and miss a fight he had planned to attend over the weekend. Police have confirmed that his death is not being treated as suspicious.

Hatton had been preparing for a high-profile comeback, with a fight scheduled in Dubai this December. However, he had long been open about his battles with mental health challenges.

In a candid 2022 interview with the BBC, Hatton spoke about “hitting rock bottom” after a devastating second-round knockout by boxing legend Manny Pacquiao – a loss that marked the beginning of the end of his professional career.

“My problems started after I got beat by Manny Pacquiao in two rounds, which basically meant, ‘Ricky, it’s time to retire,'” he said. “I had fallen out with my parents, and I’d fallen out with my trainer, Billy Graham. That’s when things really hit rock bottom.”

Hatton earned admiration from fans across Britain and beyond, but he openly struggled with addiction and mental health for years. In 2010, Ricky checked into The Priory rehab clinic, determined to seek help.

Following his recovery, he transformed his personal struggles into advocacy, becoming a powerful voice for mental health awareness and working to guide young boxers away from the same pitfalls he had faced.

Not everyone was as impressed with one shopper writing: “I bought this as a trial as I love the cleanse and polish. It’s okay, it all works well but doesn’t feel amazing or luxury. There’s not much of a scent (which I don’t like).”

Coachella 2026 organisers have announced the line-up for next year’s festival which includes Justin Bieber among the headline acts, alongside Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G

It’s been announced that the line-up for Coachella 2026 will include Justin Bieber. He’s set to headline on both weekends, alongside Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G, when the music and arts festival in California returns next April.

Organisers have revealed that next year’s Coachella begins with its first weekend from April 10 to 12, before concluding with the second weekend from April 17 to 19. The acts in the line-up, which was unveiled this morning ahead of passes going on sale on Friday, will perform on both weekends.

Justin, 31, will take to the stage on both Saturdays as the headline act for those days. Although he has performed at the festival before, it will mark the first time that he has been a headliner at the annual event in Coachella Valley.

Sabrina will instead headline both Fridays, which are due to also feature performances from the XX, KATSEYE and Teddy Swims. Alongside Justin, the two Saturdays are set to include the likes of the Strokes, Addison Rae and Labrinth. Whilst each Sunday will see headliner Karol G, as well as other acts like Young Thug, Wet Leg and FKA twigs, take to the stage.

Coachella 2025 featured Lady Gaga, Green Day, Post Malone, and Travis Scott as headliners. Others acts in this year’s line-up for the event back in April included Missy Elliott, Benson Boone, Charli xcx and Megan Thee Stallion.

The announcement of next year’s line-up comes after Justin, who hasn’t done his own tour since 2022, released his latest album recently. The singer-songwriter released Swag, which was his first album since 2021, in July, and then followed it with the double album Swag II earlier this month.

Prior to Swag’s release, Justin had sparked concern among fans with posts on social media, including one that hinted at a “detox”. It also came following rumours of potential marital issues between Justin and his wife Hailey Bieber.

The couple, who got married in 2018, however has appeared to dismiss the speculation since then. And just days ago, Justin seemed to celebrate their anniversary by sharing photos of them together on his Instagram page.

Hailey also showed her support for her husband this week following the news of him headlining Coachella next year. Sharing a photo of the line-up poster, she wrote over it on her Instagram Story today: “BIEBERCHELLA!”

Fans have also expressed excitement. It came after Justin shared the line-up poster himself and referenced lyrics from his song YUKON. He wrote: “Member used to drive a Yukon.” His post has more than 500,000 likes already.

One fan reacted: “OH MY GOODNESS.” Another said: “Overjoyed.” A third responded to the news: “Buzzing with excitement.” Someone else said: “The King is Back.” And sharing their thoughts, one person commented: “So amazing.”

Ricky Hatton’s ex-girlfriend Claire Sweeney called him ‘the people’s champ’ as she spoke out for the first time following his death.

News of Ricky’s death stunned fans on Sunday, with the star found dead at his home at the age of 46. Greater Manchester Police confirmed a body had been found at Hatton’s address and that the death was not being treated as suspicious.

Fans, celebrity admirers and Ricky’s friends in the industry spoke out in a flood of support to pay their respects to the much-loved sportsman. Ricky’s former partner Claire has today added her own tribute as she said she ‘loved and cherished’ the former boxing world champ and had needed time to process her loss.

Taking to Instagram Claire said: “I’ve needed a few days to process the devastating news about my dear friend Ricky. My thoughts are with his family especially his children Campbell, Millie Fearne and Lyla, his granddaughter. To them, Speaky and to all his friends who loved him so deeply and for so many years I send you my deepest sympathy. Ricky, you were the people’s champ. We adored and cherished you. Love you always,” she said.

Claire accompanied her words with a montage of videos and photos from her time with Ricky, soundtracked by the Elvis track ‘If I can dream.’

The soap star’s friends reached out to offer their condolences. Catherine Tyldesley, who plays Eva Price, in Coronation Street wrote: “I’m so deeply sorry my love. A true legend gone too soon. God bless and love to him and his family/friends. Love you xx” While former EastEnders star Rita Simons responded with a simple red love heart.

After being friends for over two decades, Ricky and Claire became romantically involved after they both competed on the 2024 series of Dancing on Ice.

Claire gushed at the time : “I’ve known him for 25 years or so, we kind of always passed each other during events…. Do you know what? He makes me laugh, that’s it.”

While Ricky described it as a ‘great story’ after they went from friends to lovers.

The pair seemed like a perfect match and were photographed on cosy pub date nights, holidays to Mallorca and even a double date with Ricky’s former skating partner Robin Johnstone an her husband Andy Buchanan.

Sadly, the pair’s romance wasn’t to last as it was reported in December 2024 that their romance had come to an end after eight months together.

Claire said about her and Ricky’s relationship following their split: “We’re still friends. We were friends, we dated then we’re friends again. It’s all good.”

Claire’s post comes after Ricky’s long-serving manager revealed he had found the body of his friend at the boxer’s home after becoming concerned for his welfare.

Paul Speak, who was also Hatton’s “confidant”, is said to “deserve a little bit of love” following the grim discovery on Sunday morning. He let himself into the boxing icon’s home in Hyde, Greater Manchester, after Hatton, 46, failed to turn up to a boxing show on Saturday evening.

Boxing commentator Steve Bunce said last night: “He (Mr Bunce) filled me in on a few details about the Friday night and the Saturday night. On the Saturday night, Ricky hadn’t gone to a boxing show… Speaky had found out Sunday morning. Speaky went round and let himself into the house. In fact it was Paul Speak who found his great friend and the people’s champion Ricky Hatton.

“Speaky deserves a little bit of love. You can’t even begin to imagine. It’s a 25-year relationship they’ve had as his commercial and business manager, but more than that it’s his close friend. It’s his confidant… I can’t think of another relationship like it in sport to be perfectly honest. So Speaky was the one that found him.”

The family of Ricky Hatton paid tribute to their “beloved son Richard” yesterday. In the emotional statement released through police, the boxer’s family said it was “source of great comfort to see just how many lives Richard touched”.

Former boxer Stacey Copeland, a close friend of Hatton, spoke to the BBC Five Live for a special ‘Remembering Ricky Hatton’ programme which aired on Monday night. Ms Copeland said Hatton “dared to dream” and told how she saw Hatton last on Thursday at his gym.

Hatton, born in Stockport, Greater Manchester, was due to be in Dubai on Monday, to sign a contract for a fight he was due to have in December against United Arab Emirates fighter Eisa Al Dah, Ms Copeland added.

Speaking to the BBC, Ms Copeland said: “He was saying he had a problem with his elbow. It was starting to hurt. We just had a bit of a joke, saying ‘you are knocking on now Rick’. That was it. To say it was a shock is a massive understatement.”

Intriguingly, right at the end of the poster, the organisers promote “The Bunker Debut Of RADIOHEAD KID A MNESIA”, sparking a fair bit of excited speculation.

As previously noted by Billboard, back in 2021, Radiohead reissued both their 2000 album Kid A as well as 2001’s Amnesiac, tied together as a compilation project titled Kid A Mnesia. It’s therefore possible the classic projects will be heard in their entirety, to mark to 25th anniversary of Kid A.
