Lewis Burton said he was in “so much pain” after finding out his ex-Love Island host girlfriend had taken her own life yesterday.
In a tear-jerking post to Instagram, Lewis, 27, shared a photo of himself and 40-year-old Caroline cuddling on a sofa.
He said: “He wrote: “My heart is broken we had something so special.
“I am so lost for words I am in so much pain I miss you so much I know you felt safe with me you always said I don’t think about anything else when I am with you and I was not allowed to be there this time I kept asking and asking.
“I will be your voice baby I promise I will ask all the questions you wanted and I will get all the answers nothing will bring you back but I will try make you proud everyday.
“I love you with all my heart.”
Caroline was found dead at her east London flat by a friend yesterday.
Her family said in a statement: “We can confirm that our Caroline passed away today, the 15th of February.”
The shock news prompted a flood of tributes from celebrities but also questions about the pressures faced by TV celebrities and about the decision to press ahead with her prosecution for an alleged assault on her boyfriend.
