Caroline Flack, most known for presenting Love Island, has been found dead at her London flat after taking her own life.
A family statement read: “We can confirm that our Caroline passed away today on the 15th February.
“We would ask that the press both respect the privacy of the family at this difficult time.”
An ITV spokesperson said: “Everybody at Love Island and ITV is shocked and saddened by this desperately sad news. Caroline was a much loved member of the Love Island team and our sincere thoughts and condolences are with her family and friends.”
The tragic news comes after Caroline had been charged with an assault back in December after an alleged argument with boyfriend Lewis Burton. The 40-year-old had taken a step back from her television work in the last few months.
