#Jamaica, July 27, 2023 – Jill Stewart, wife of millionaire hotelier Adam Stewart, has died.

Stewart, who is the son of celebrated tourism mogul and Sandals Group founder Gordon ‘Butch’ Stewart, made the announcement himself via Twitter.

“It is almost unimaginable that it has come to this. Still, with unbearable grief and a broken heart, I let you know that my wife Jill, the love of my life, my best friend of 28 years, and mother of our three wonderful children passed away peacefully and surrounded by love,” he said on July 15th.

Jill Stewart was born in The Bahamas and moved to Jamaica in 2005 to be with her husband. She had been diagnosed with liposarcoma (a rare type of cancer that develops in your fatty tissue), a little over a year before her death. The teenage sweethearts, as described by Adam, had been married for 14 years and shared three children.

Sandals is one of the Turks and Caicos’ largest employers and the group acts as community builders sponsoring various social events.

The Magnetic Media team joins with others in the region and the world offering sincere condolences to the Stewart family and the wider Sandals family.  Well-wishers can send thoughts, prayers and condolences to: WithLove@JillStewartFamily.com
