ITV newsreader Trevor Green has died at the age of 74. His wife Joanna posted on Facebook last night and confirmed the sad news via Piccadilly Radio in an emotional statement. Described as a 'gem' by a former work colleague, Trevor spent almost 20 years working on Granada Reports and ITV News. Joanna said in a statement: “Trevor slipped away peacefully this morning in the early hours of what is today his 74th Birthday. He developed breathing probs last evening.
“I’ve lost my soul mate and feel rather at sea. But thankfully he’s now out of pain and we’ve been blessed with lots of time in recent weeks and months to reminisce and shape his wishes. Sorry we couldn’t fix another visit…Taking quiet me-time out today to reflect on our 44 years together. Will miss him like mad. Let u know plans in due course.”
