As Chloe Lewis speaks out after the death of Jake Hall, when did they date, does she have children?

The Only Way Is Essex star Jake Hall was tragically only 35 when he died in Spain on May 6 of this year. At the time, a spokesperson for the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office said: "We are supporting the family of a British man who has died in Spain and are in contact with the local authorities."

Following Jake Hall’s death, Denise Hall told the Daily Mail that “I’ve worked on the show since it started and with any loss within our TOWIE family it is heartbreaking. But he was so lovely whenever I saw him out and he was so friendly and so talented.”

Vas J Morgan took to Instagram and wrote: “35 years old is far too young. Jake had so much more life to live. This is an incredible loss and my heart is breaking for his baby girl River, his parents, his brother Sonny and the rest of the family.

“The friendship most of you saw between Jake and I on TOWIE was just a snippet of what we had been through together. Jake and I supported each other through many lows and celebrated every achievement side by side. From the moment I met him, we had a bond not many people could understand. It felt like reconnecting with a long lost brother.

“He was so talented. I truly don’t think the world had even seen half of what his mind was capable of.

“I’m so sorry. Sending love to everybody who needs it today. This is a deeply difficult loss. I just wish we had more time. RIP Jake Hall 🖤.”

DJ Fat Tony wrote: “Devastating news we Love you @jakehall such an awful loss to the world you beautiful man x,” whilst Blue star, Anthony Costa, said: "So sad. What a lovely bloke you were mate R.I.P."

In February of this year, Jake Hall shared photos of his daughter River with ex Missé Beqiri and wrote: “Putting this up again - My heart hurts not having you next to me daily but - we will conquer the world kid with good vibes and believing you can do absolutely anything you set your mind to - NEVER GIVE UP DAD - BOOOOM✨.”

The representatives of Missé Beqiri issued a statement via Tyla following the death of Jake Hall which reads: "At this time, Misse’s focus is on supporting and protecting their child as they come to terms with this devastating loss. The family are asking for privacy, compassion and respect while they grieve privately."

Jake Hall joined the cast of TOWIE in 2015 and dated Chloe Lewis before quitting the show in 2024. Fans of Chloe Lewis have also taken to her Instagram to share their condolences and one wrote: “Can't believe about jake 😢 hope you're OK.”

Chloe Lewis has now given an update on Instagram following Jake Hall’s death and wrote: “My first love, my childhood sweetheart. A love that taught me so much about life and myself, and even more so now your presence is no longer here. A complete pain in the arse most of the time, but always with the purest heart and the greatest soul.

“ou touched so many lives and meant well in everything you did. I knew who you were… and I know what you wanted from life… a happy home and a loving family. Being the best dad was the most important thing to you & we always use to speak about it. You did that, Jake, with pride and made it look so easy and effortless. Like I knew you would.

“We met at the age of 16, when you stalked me in a bar and ended up coming out with my sister and Danny for the night. You looked like you had stepped straight out of a Ralph Lauren catalogue in your shirt, sleeves rolled up, with a red sweatshirt tied over your shoulders like a little Spanish boy.

“I remember thinking, How am I stuck with this guy for the night? But somehow, you danced with me all night and we belly-laughed until the early hours. You made me feel like I was the most wonderful person you had ever met. From that day on, we were inseparable, and you became my best friend.

“Navigating our young years and being thrown into a reality TV show, being in the public eye wasn’t really what we wanted, but it all just happened so quickly & it took over our relationship. It was a huge struggle for me & mentally hurt us both.

We had our ups and downs, but we always knew how to come back to each other… until it was all “too late. Life got in the way, and we separated after spending 10 years together. We didn’t love wrong, we just didn’t know how to hold on to it.

“The most talented and creative person I knew, from such a young age — starting Prevu in your mum and dad’s garage. Me and Mummy were always your No.1 fans. You came up with the most gorgeous styles that were completely original, and I remember the day you made me the first womenswear piece and insisted on taking photos of me wearing it. It was unique, just like you.

In response, actress Michelle Keegan wrote: “Oh Chloe I’m so sorry. Sending you so much love ❤️ xx.”

Chloe Lewis has a six-year old son Beau from her former partner, Danny Flasher. In February she took to Instagram and wrote: “I didn’t know whether to share this with the world or not, as he’s my baby & as a parent you’re always protective over your child. I’m sharing to help others and raise awareness.

“After receiving the dreaded phone call NYE 2pm that no parent ever wants to receive, I was told Beau had been in a terrible accident. He fell over ice skating & someone ran over his finger with their bladed skates, which took his finger off 😭

“I’m not even sure how I got into the car and drove the 45 minutes to him, if I’m honest — it was all a complete blur.

“When I arrived, he was wrapped up in a silver medical blanket. His little face melted my heart, and I did my best to hold back the tears so I didn’t upset him. He kept telling me, “It’s fine mum, you don’t need to cry, I’m OK. My finger’s going to be OK.” 🥹

“We were blue-lighted to The Royal London, where they checked him over and did X-rays. He finally went down for surgery at around 8pm. Watching your child be put to sleep is probably the worst thing I’ve ever experienced — it’s incredibly distressing, and I honestly wouldn’t wish it on anyone.

“After 3.5 hours in surgery, I was called down so I could be there when he woke up. The plastic surgeon told me everything went well. We then went back up to the ward, where I watched him s
