Quote:

The husband of singer Corinne Bailey Rae has been found dead at a flat in Leeds.

Police discovered the body of Jason Rae, 31, a saxophonist with the band The Haggis Horns, after being called to a flat in the city's Hyde Park area yesterday afternoon.

"As a result of inquiries a 32-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of supplying controlled drugs," said a spokesman for West Yorkshire Police. "He has now been released on police bail pending further inquiries."

A post-mortem was carried out last night but police said they were awaiting toxicology reports to determine the cause of death.

Bailey Rae, 29, met her husband while working as a cloakroom attendant in a Leeds jazz club. The pair married in 2001.

A statement from Bailey Rae's label read: "EMI Records would like to offer its sincere condolences to Corinne Bailey Rae and the Rae family at this tragic time. We ask that the media respects Corinne's privacy and that of her entire family."
