The family of England’s rugby league captain Jamie Peacock arrived safely in the country after being stranded for 6 days in Bangkok, Thailand.

Peacock’s wife Faye, son Lewis and mother-in-law Pat were in the Thai capital and was scheduled to be back in England last week but political unrest at the Bangkok’s International Airport halted the operations and caused the delay of all flights.

Anti-government protesters barged in the airport thereby leading to the mass delay of all flights.

Despite the ordeal, the Peacock family remained optimistic and positive that everything will come to an end.

The rugby player expressed his happiness upon seeing his family back in his arms. Faye Peacock is currently seven months pregnant.

According to reports, the Peacock family secured a flight from a Bangkok military airport to Stockholm, Sweden. They got another flight from the Swedish capital and Manchester thereafter.

Faye Peacock stated in an interview that she felt happy being back but still couldn’t help but felt strange about the ordeal. In fact, she shared that they were forced to look after themselves while in the Bangkok airport.

She added that they had a hard time getting a taxi and communicating with the driver. However, they are still thankful that they made it through.
