Yet another apology over the 'gatecrashed' wake

It's taken an extra month, but the Express has finally followed in the footsteps of the Mail, Sun and Standard in publishing an apology to Nancy Jones:

Our articles of December 8, 2009, January 25 and February 9, 2010 suggested that Nancy Jones, daughter of Keith Floyd, had turned up unannounced at his wake and that she had not inherited anything from her father as there was reason to doubt her paternity.

In fact Ms Jones’s existence was well known to Mr Floyd and the family and she was an invited guest at his wake.

We apologise for any distress caused.

    "Our articles of December 8, 2009, January 25 and February 9, 2010 suggested that Nancy Jones, daughter of Keith Floyd, had turned up unannounced at his wake"

    Except none of the THREE articles in question "suggested" that she'd gatecrashed her own father's wake, they stated it as fact.
