Just weeks after the shock announcement that Love Island 2016 star Sophie Gradon had died, her boyfriend, Aaron Armstrong has tragically been found dead.
Aaron broke the news of Sophie’s death just weeks ago, taking to Facebook to confirm the tragedy and pay tribute to his girlfriend, who was just 32-years-old.
‘I will never forget that smile,’ he posted. ‘I love you so so much baby, you’re my world forever and always.’
Five days ago, Armstrong posted a tribute to his late girlfriend at her funeral, posting a picture of the order of service, alongside the words, ‘I love you with all my heart my beautiful angel I'm absolutely heartbroken I can't stop crying.’
Just a day ago he took to Instagram to pay tribute once more, captioning a photo of the two of them, ’Just wish I could cuddle you all day miss you so much man Sophie not a minute goes by with out your gorgeous smile being a picture in my mind everyday we spent together was so amazing I need them days back 😢💔 I love you princess.’
The next day the 25-year-old was found dead at a property in Northumberland.
