==Personal life== Moores's first wife Kathy Anders was a beauty queen and model, who became [[Miss England]] in 1974. After just 18 months of marriage, Anders died in a car crash in September 1977, aged 26, when Moores' Jaguar car overturned into a ditch on a quiet country road in Lancashire. Moores went to hospital with serious head injuries. It was the second family tragedy that year for the Moores family. Five months earlier in April 1977, Moores's elder brother Nigel died in a car crash in the South of France.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=2507&dat=19770905&id=kPY-AAAAIBAJ&sjid=TE0MAAAAIBAJ&pg=4789,763300|title=The Glasgow Herald β Google News Archive Search|work=google.com}}</ref> Moores was married to wife Marge in 1983 until her death in 2022.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2007/mar/14/newsstory.sport3|title=Indebted FC: born in Liverpool, owned in Dallas, Delaware and the Cayman Islands|access-date=16 January 2010|last=Conn|first=David|date=14 March 2007 |work=The Guardian}}</ref> Moores was the heir to the Littlewoods Business empire.
