Tim and Kate Cowley, parents of the late surfer Khai Cowley, are going through the most difficult period of their lives. The couple had just lost their 15-year-old son Khai, a famous junior surfer in Australia. The family is in grief, and Khai’s parents witness the most shocking event of their lives. Khai Cowley has been active in the surfing scene, with a family history of surfing. At a recent surfing event, his grandfather, Peter Barley, uncle, Adam Barley and the young man all received awards.
As a third generation surfer in the family, the young man was very skilled and popular at an early age. Unfortunately, he died on December 28, 2023 as a result of a shark attack. According to sources, Khai is the third person to die this year and the eighth person to die in a shark attack in South Australia in the past 22 years.
Parents of Khai Cowley: Who are they?
Tim and Kate Cowley, Khai Cowley’s parents, cannot say anything at this time. They are Australians who rose to fame after losing their teenage son. Although Khai’s grandfather and uncle are also surfers, his parents don’t seem to be in the same league. However, we learned that his father, Tim Cowley, also enjoys surfing. He was with his son Khai on Thursday at Ethel Beach on Yorke West Peninsula in their hometown of Adelaide.
According to reports, the child died after being attacked by a great white dog while surfing. Cowley’s body was discovered in the ocean minutes after the attack at Ethel Beach in the Inner National Park. A shark bit him on the leg, and his father, Tim, stood horrified. According to sources, the father and son combination went on a short trip together to a surfing spot about 4 hours away from their home. After the boy’s death, his family and loved ones remember him. Uncle Adam and the boy surf regularly, according to his grandfather. Furthermore, the world of surfing remembers the late surfer as a brave and skilled young man.
Family and professional life of Khai Cowley
Tim and Kate Cowley, Cowley’s parents, are not wealthy. Although little information is given about their occupation or location, they seem to live normal lives with enough money. Lauryn Barley, the late surfer’s aunt, started a GoFundMe page to help Khai’s parents with funeral expenses. By December 30, almost 1,300 associates had collected over 75,000 dollars.
In addition, the community agreed to hold an event in Cowley’s name, paying respect to his life and enthusiasm for the sport. The Port Noarlunga Football Club also sent a sympathetic greeting to the family. In a statement, they said: “Khai and his family have been part of our community for many years and we are devastated to hear this news.”
