Me neither. In that case, good riddance.

How has that slipped me by? Didn’t know about that. CUNT!

I haven’t read up on it in detail but i thought it was only hearsay ? She never actually went on record alleging it?
Not condoning it in anyway.

I think it was one of those known secrets in hollywood. I remember reading about it a few years ago as a spin off from Wagner being accused of murdering her.

RIP Lyle Mays

Sad news …a fine muscian

Very sad. It’s not what he’s known for so much, but Joni Mitchell’s Shadows and Light album is a standout work.

That is sad news - a great musician.

Domestic violence destroys careers.

I suspect she was in a bad place.

The media and social media need to sort their fucking shit out when it comes to hassling people and permitting the encouragement of suicide online.

Tragic. I don’t really know if she was famous for anything other than being famous but tragic all the same.
The price of celebrity ?

She was the compere/presenter for Love Island for a few years.

Yeah I didn’t know much about her, but blimey, awful when it comes to that. Very sad.

She allegedly smashed a lamp into her boyfriends face, causing a bloodbath (there have been published scene photos).

She had a trial coming up.

I am certain she knew her career wouldn’t recover from the exposure. Even though her partner wouldn’t give evidence the hearsay rules and initial call and what officers heard at the scene would likely be enough.

She was staring at her livelihood going. Had it been a man I suspect there would have been little sympathy.

I won’t get into the debate on gender issues but I can guarantee that the mix of youth, indulgence and social media didn’t help the whole thing. She was hounded by trolls, but you have cope with that (not condone it) when you live your life professional life online.

None of my post suggested she deserved it!

When you have been integrally involved in stuff like this you get some insight into the way depression and desperation affect the mind.
I’m not sure you’d challenge my empathy if you knew some of the situations i have faced in the last few years.

Maybe not, but your post certainly didn’t express any degree of empathy either.

It was a statement. Not a judgement.
