Who was Terry Hall’s wife? Late The Specials frontman had three sons from two marriages
ENGLAND, UK: English ska band The Specials announced on Sunday, December 19, 2022, that their lead vocalist Terry Hall had died at the age of 63. The talented singer died from an unspecified brief illness. The band took to Twitter to announce the tragic news. Meanwhile, no comments have been made by the family. Hall was previously married to Jeanette Hall, with whom he had two sons. While not much is known about that marriage and the duration of the relationship, Hall remarried sometime later.
The Specials announced the death of their frontman on social media. They tweeted, "It is with great sadness that we announce the passing, following a brief illness, of Terry, our beautiful friend, brother and one of the most brilliant singers, songwriters and lyricists this country has ever produced. Terry was a wonderful husband and father and one of the kindest, funniest, and most genuine of souls. His music and his performances encapsulated the very essence of life… the joy, the pain, the humour, the fight for justice, but mostly the love." Hall formed Fun Boy Three with fellow bandmates Neville Staple and Lynval Golding in 1981, who also remembered the singer. No comments have been made by Hall's current wife with whom he had a son.

Who is Terry Hall’s widow?
Terry Hall was married to Lindy Heymann, who is a BIFA award-winning British director who directs dramas, documentaries, television, and feature films. She studied at Central St Martins. After graduating with a BA in Fine Art Film, she went on to pursue a prolific career directing music videos. She won a British Independent Film Award (BIFA) for Best Directorial Debut for her feature film debut 'Showboy' (2002). She is also known for 'The Laughing King' (2016) and 'Kicks' (2009).
Heymann recently completed working on Harlan Coben's 'Stay Close' starring Cush Jumbo, James Nesbit, Richard Armitage, Sarah Parrish, and others for Netflix, which became the No 1 show for three weeks straight.
As per her website, Heymann says, "I thrive on being the outsider looking in - I am interested in stories that reflect an individual trying to make their own sense of the world. My way in is a great character, a distinctive voice or a unique point of view that engages, excites or touches me. I delight in the cinematic journey, the collaboration between those in front and behind the camera and the process of bringing that vision to life."
