The BBC radio commentator John Hunt and his daughter Amy Hunt recently gave an interview with the BBC, marking the first time they spoke publicly since the tragic murders of their family members Carol, Hannah, and Louise in July 2024.
The three victims, Carol, Hannah, and Louise, were brutally killed by Louise’s ex-boyfriend Kyle Clifford, who was later convicted of the murders and received a life sentence in March 2025. John Hunt mentioned in the interview that there were no apparent warning signs indicating anything amiss with Clifford while he was in a relationship with his daughter.
John Hunt, a BBC radio commentator, and his daughter Amy Hunt, who was not present during the attack, shared their heartbreaking story in an emotional interview with the BBC. John opened up about the profound grief of losing his wife Carol and daughters Louise and Hannah in the tragic incident.
Amy expressed her feelings about her lost family members, describing them as the best of them and lamenting the emptiness their absence has left in the world. She wished that people could have known and seen them for who they truly were.
The devastating attack took place in the family’s home in Bushey, Hertfordshire, on July 9, 2024, where Clifford assaulted Carol, tied up Louise, and fatally shot her and Hannah with a crossbow. Carol succumbed to stab wounds, while Louise and Hannah lost their lives to the crossbow injuries.
Kyle Clifford admitted guilt to the murders in court and was handed a life sentence in March 2025 for the heinous crimes.

In a touching moment, John shared a poignant TikTok message about the power and resilience of love, expressing pride in embracing love wholeheartedly despite the pain it may bring.
