Who is the wife of SportPesa boss? Captains Ronald and wife Ruth met at flying school where they had both merited for training.

“I met my husband in flying school. The first time I saw him, he was wearing cream trousers and a blue shirt.

My first impression of him was that he was a gentleman. He was walking ahead of me and when he got to the door he held the door open until I got there. That has stuck with me to date…

But at 19, straight from high school, I don’t think it would have taken much to impress me… As he stood holding the door ajar, I wondered what he was waiting for.”
