Caitlyn Jeans: Mum Annie pays tribute to daughter with 'never-ending smile'

Caitlyn Jeans was found dead at her home. Police believe that she killed herself - but a man has been arrested for “unlawful act manslaughter” and has been bailed while officers investigate.

The 26-year-old’s devastated mum Annie has issued a tribute via police, saying: “It is with the greatest sadness that I regret to announce the passing of my beautiful daughter, Caitlyn Jeans.

“Those that knew Caitlyn will understand what a huge loss this is to myself, our family, and the many friends that Caitlyn made throughout her short life.

“Caitlyn’s larger-than-life personality and the beauty of her never-ending smile would fill an empty room with ease, and her passing has left a void in many people’s lives that can never be filled.

“On behalf of myself and the rest of our family, I would like to thank those that have offered their condolences and ask that our privacy is respected as we begin to grieve this great loss.”

A coroner’s inquest into Caitlyn’s death has been adjourned until Monday, November 17 to be held at Stourport Coroners Court. Caitlyn was found at her home in Evesham, Worcestershire, on June 27.
