British artist and reality TV star Jake Hall, best known from The Only Way Is Essex, has died at 35 after a tragic accident at a villa in Mallorca on May 6.
Police say he suffered fatal head injuries, likely caused by glass, and are treating the death as an accidental incident, with an autopsy still pending. Reports suggest he had been partying earlier in the night, and investigators believe he may have struck his head during a moment of agitation.
Hall, who shared an 8-year-old daughter with Misse Beqiri, had recently focused on art after stepping away from reality TV and fashion. Friends said his daughter inspired his creative work during a difficult period in his life.
Just hours before his death, he posted a video showing life in Mallorca, including time with friends, painting, and moments with his daughter.
His former show TOWIE and fans have paid tribute, describing him as part of the show’s extended family and sending condolences to his loved ones.
