Caroline Flack's brother Paul dies six years after tragic loss of TV presenter
The older brother of Caroline Flack has passed away, six years after the death of his TV presenter sister.
According to a report from Eastern Daily Press, Paul Flack was found unresponsive at his home in Norfolk on 21 June, later dying in hospital. His death occurred just three days after his 55th birthday.
He is survived by his partner and two children.
An inquest into the artist and graphic designer's death was opened at Norfolk Coroner’s Court on Monday (29 June) and has since been adjourned until 23 October while further evidence is gathered.
Details from the inquest confirmed his identity and a provisional cause of death while further investigations are ongoing.
Paul's death comes six years after the passing of his younger sister Caroline, a TV presenter famous for appearing on shows such as Love Island and The X Factor, who died at her home in February 2020, at the age of 40.
Following the news of her death, Paul's final Instagram post was a tribute to his sister, reading: "This will be my last post here. May those who know feel shame for eternity. Love you Caroline."
Tributes to Paul have begun to flood in on the post, with people also sharing their condolences for his family.
The siblings' mother, Christine Flack, spoke out last year in a two-part documentary, Caroline Flack: Search for the Truth, about the impact of losing the TV presenter on her family.
The moving documentary examined the final months of Caroline's life and included accounts from her close friends and family. Christine also sought to challenge the media in how her daughter's final months and death were reported.
