Default Love Island’s Sophie Gradon has died


https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebri...radon-12757402

Love Island's Sophia Gradon has died at the age of 32.

Sophie’s boyfriend, Aaron Armstrong, along with her friends and family confirmed via Sophie’s personal Facebook account that she had passed away.


Sharing a picture of them together, he wrote: "I will never forget that smile I love you so so much baby your my world forever ever and always"

The former reality star, who hailed from Newcastle, was crowned Miss Great Britain in 2009.

She's also a former Miss Newcastle.

She made history on Love Island as one half of the show's first same-sex couple after she coupled up with Katie Salmon.

Before that, she'd been coupled up with barman Tom Powell.

It is not yet known how Sophie died.


A Northumbria Police spokesperson told the Daily Star: "At about 8.27pm yesterday (June 20) police attended a property in Medburn, Ponteland, where sadly a 32-year-old woman was found deceased.

"There are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances surrounding her death. A report will now be prepared for the coroner."
</3 soo young

Going by the tweets coming from her friends and fellow reality TV stars, it sounds like she took her own life. Heartbreaking

They’re both her friends so I’m assuming they’re both just in denial/shock and are lashing out. But if her depression was caused by Love Island and that led to her death then the lack of after care by the producers is a contributing factor at the end of the day. It’s not as if Malin and Jasmine both wouldn’t know what goes on with these shows with Malin being on Sophie’s series of Love Island and Jasmine doing Big Brother and other shows.

Yikes.

Did she have a bad time during Love Island? Was she a villain?

So shocking, if she’s really depsressed because of the show, it was a shame that LI producers didn’t step in...

This is the first civilian LI death right?

She lasted most of the series but ended up leaving the series a villain of sorts because she made one of the newcomer girls come out as bisexual on TV to couple up with her and keep her in the show and then turned around and said she wasn’t interested in her once she the eviction was over.

Jasmine was implying it was down to her expectations after doing Love Island not materialising and comparing herself to the achievements of other contestants but idk. I don’t think we’ll ever know
