Susan Tsvangirai was killed instantly and the Prime Minister is said to be in a stable condition in hospital.
The lorry driver has admitted falling asleep at the wheel, according to reports.
A source in his party said: "I can confirm that Susan Tsvangirai has died following the accident."
Sky News Africa (http://uk.news.yahoo.com/africa.html) correspondent Emma Hurd said the accident happened as the couple were travelling to a rally south of the capital Harare.
"The car they were travelling in was sideswiped by a lorry," she said.
Robert Mugabe is reported to have visited Mr Tsvangirai in hospital.
State television reported nothing about the accident in its two evening news bulletins.
The Foreign Office expressed "deep sadness" at the news.
A spokeswoman said the UK Government offered its condolences and was tracking developments closely.


Tsvangirai was sworn in last month as prime minister of a government with old rival President Robert Mugabe.
It was set up to try to end a political and economic (http://uk.news.yahoo.com/fc/budget-economy.html) crisis that has brought the once relatively prosperous country to ruin.
Tsvangirai, who turns 57 on Tuesday, has been married to Susan for 31 years. They have six children.
Although Susan was not actively involved in Tsvangirai's party, she has supported him and appeared at campaign rallies with her husband over the last 10 years.

[dannyboymed]

Aw, should have been Mugabe :(

[J0SH]

I know it isn't :)

[efq]

My Dad said it should of been Mugabe to lol, he also said someone should of shot him at the hospital.

[Jordy]

Mugabe or Mugabe's people probably did it.I really have my doubts that Mugabe was the person driving the actual Lorry, if it is a conspiracy to kill the PM then I'm almost certain he has people to assassinate him rather than do it himself, he's about 70 now.

It was in a rural area and the roads would be awful so accidents are common but you can't put much past Zimbabwe so the chances that it was an assassination attempt are quite high.

RIP, must be horrible for her husband after 31 years of marriage.

[J0SH]

So? She deserved it, atleast she died before she could divorce him.

[Jordy]

So? She deserved it, atleast she died before she could divorce him.I guess this bit proves my point in Habbox Feedback about World News forum getting out of hand, this has just proved my point perfectly, it is out of control and the rules don't accomodate it.

Deserved it? Morgan Tsvangirai has spent most of his life persevering for a real democracy in Zimbabwe, in the past year he's gone on leaps and bounds, there's still a way to go but he's slowly changing Zimbabwe.

[Jahova]

Mugabe or Mugabe's people probably did it.
Yep. Obvious..

UPDATED NEWS: Immediate speculation that this was an assination bid.

*REMOVED* Elaborate on why she deserved it?

Zimbabwe's roads are very quite, he was off to a remote part and obviously they knew where he was going and what car he was in so it'd be very easy to locate him. The media hasn't actually been stirring, Sky speculated on the Rumours but that's it.

[J0SH]

Because she did.
