Sarah Storey Children: Daughter Louisa Marie And Son Charlie John Storey

5 years late, Sarah was blessed again with a baby boy, and she names him Charlie John Storey.

Who Is Sarah Storey Husband Barney Storey?
Sarah Storey is married to her athletic husband, Richard Barnaby “Barney” Storey.
Barne, 44, has competed in tandem track cycling events and is partially sighted. Like Sarah, Barney also had some difficulty, but it was type 1 diabetes.
He was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when he was only 4 years old.
The couple tied the knot back in 2007.
Since then, they have had a very beautiful and flourishing relationship, and Barney has now become a coach.
What Disability Does Sarah Storey Have?
Sarah Storey was born with an underdeveloped left hand.
This was not an external injury; instead, it was caused when Sarah was inside her mother’s womb.
Her left hand tangled with the umbilical cord, causing her arm to become under-developed, and the reason for the defect.
Earlier in life, she was also suffering from an eating disorder. Sarah told Cyclist magazine in 2017 that she had “an eating disorder as a 15-year-old”.
But she overcame all the negative factors, and now she has come a long way.
The disabilities and difficulties never stop her from becoming one of the successful Paralympics of Britain.
