Two British children stranded in New Zealand after their mother died in a tragic crash during holiday
Reports state that the two children will now have to spend Christmas in Whangarei and will be schooled in New Zealand while their surviving parent undergoes physical therapy.
Two British children have been stranded thousands of miles away in New Zealand for Christmas after a head-on car crash killed their mother and left her spouse severely injured, according to reports. The children, identified as Ben and Olivia Sargeant — aged six and nine — were enjoying a dream holiday with their parents Kerry and Jules Sargent in New Zealand when the tragedy occurred.
Reports state that 42-year-old Kerry, while going for a night out for dinner with her friends, was killed in a brutal road crash near Whangarei, north of Auckland, while 49-year-old Jules, who was also in the vehicle, suffered life-threatening injuries.
