Kelly Osbourne also reacted writing, “Words are way more powerful than you think… never forget to tell your loved ones that you love them. What a special person @carolineflack was. She lit up every room because she shined so brightly. To say I’m saddened by her loss is simply not enough. It was an honor and a privilege to have known you and to call you my friend. I can’t even believe I’m writing this.”

News broke on Feb. 15, 2020 that the former “Love Island” host had died at the age of 40.

A family statement was issued to the UK Press Association that reads, “We can confirm that our Caroline passed away on the 15^th February. We would ask that the press both respect the privacy of the family at this difficult time.”

Caroline stepped down from the hosting “Love Island” in December 2019 after she faced assault charges for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend, per the BBC.

She plead not guilty to the charges, per multiple reports. A spokesperson for London’s Metropolitan Police previously told People that “the man was not seriously injured.”

She was set to face trial on March 4, 2020, per People.
