Former The Only Way Is Essex star Jake Hall has died at the age of 35 in an accident in Majorca. The reality TV personality was found unresponsive with head wounds reportedly caused by shards of glass at a villa in Santa Margalida, in the north of the island.
Spanish Civil Guard officers investigating the death say they are considering that Hall may have smashed his head through a glass door. Police were called to the holiday rental at about 7.30am on Wednesday. There have been no arrests, and an autopsy will take place in Palma.
The Spanish Civil Guard said it was investigating the incident, which it said appeared to be an accidental death. A Foreign Office spokesperson said: 'We are supporting the family of a British man who has died in Spain and are in contact with the local authorities.'
Hall had been spending time in Majorca with family and had been posting videos and photographs on Instagram in the days leading up to his death. He posted on Wednesday: 'Life is bollocks sometimes but I’m gonna try remember the good things – looking through things – I’m just making art – in many forms.'
The Only Way Is Essex production team paid tribute, saying: 'Jake was a part of the Towie family for a number of years and we send our very deepest sympathies to his family and friends following today’s very sad news.' He is survived by his daughter, River, with former Ladies of London star Missé Beqiri.
