A group of lads staged a mock funeral for their mate after he… got a girlfriend.
20-year-old Keiran Cable from South Wales dropped off the radar around 18 months ago, after meeting his 19-year-old girlfriend Jess Ferguson.
Keiran’s mate, Ben Sullivan, who organised the fake funeral explained: ‘A couple of weeks ago we were all in the pub and we all started saying ‘RIP Keiran’. ‘None of us had seen him since then and he wasn’t replying to any of our group texts or mails.’
‘So we decided if he wasn’t going to come out with us and was going to pretend he was dead then we’d organise a fake funeral for him.’
And the boys certainly didn’t hold back.
The fake funeral included a vicar (well, sort of), a homemade blue coffin bearing Keiran’s initials, a hearse, an order of service, and even a hymn sheet (although the ‘hymns’ were by the Vaccines, Oasis and The Jam).

Meanwhile, a eulogy on the order of service read: ‘’Keiran has had a tough 18 months trying to keep his friendship with his friends alive but sadly the wait is now over and he has floated up to the gates of heaven. What hurts the most is that we were starved of precious time to say our last goodbyes after his relationship status was changed from ‘Single’ to ‘in a Relationship’.
It is now time for us to finally say our last goodbyes by raising a glass for our friend Keiran.”
Keiran thought he was going to the pub to watch the rugby when the fake funeral was sprung on him.
Talking about the moment he entered the pub to find 50 of his mates dressed in suits and ready to mourn his loss, he said: ‘’I was in complete shock and didn’t know what to do or say. My cheeks were aching from smiling so much. The boys made a massive effort and it was definitely a day to remember.’
Meanwhile, his girlfriend Jess, who insists he’s free to see his mates ‘whenever he likes’, said: ‘I am so pleased that the boys have received recognition for their effort, it is lovely to see Keiran’s friends are so fond of him. Our friends and family know that Keiran and I are very happy as a couple.

‘We love spending time with each other, but he knows that he can go out with his friends whenever he wants to.”
