Adult film star Sophie Anderson has died aged 36, her friend has announced.
The Bristol-born actor has died two weeks after the death of her ex-boyfriend Oliver Spedding.
Her friend and retired pornstar Rebecca Jones took to Instagram today (5 December) to write a heartfelt caption.

It read: "I’m devastated hearing the awful news of Sophie’s passing.
"We shared some amazing times together and that’s how I’m going to remember her.
"The bubbly, funny, kind hearted soul who was outrageous on the outside but also so gentle behind closed doors.
"We were very close, and we shared a crazy time together that was totally unique to us. That’s how I will remember her.

"This is so tragic but I know you are now at peace. I will always always love you and hold a special place in my heart."
She also wrote on another post: "SOPHIE ANDERSON. We had years of laughs.
"Thank you Sophie. I’ll miss you xxxx."
Anderson's ex-boyfriend and former Crystal Palace footballer Spedding left the pitch to go into the porn industry, where the pair first met.

However, in an interview on the Anything Goes with James English podcast, Spedding said that being a porn star is 'not as good as people think'.
He died at the age of 34 last month.
Spedding's old club Croydon FC said in a tweet: "Croydon FC are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our former player, Oliver Spedding.
"Oliver played for the club over a couple of spells and was a much-loved individual who always gave his utmost for the team.
"He will be hugely missed by everyone at the club and our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time. Rest in Peace, Ollie. Once a Tram (the club's nickname), always a Tram."

Croydon FC also held a minute's silence before their match on November 18.
The exact cause of Spedding and Anderson's deaths remain unknown.
Commenting on her friend Jones' post today, one person wrote: "Really cannot believe it. Sending all my love. Devastating news."
"Sending love to everyone that loved Soph, that girl was so special. I’ve never laughed and cried harder with someone. So so special," another added.
