Caroline Flack’s whole world was swept under her feet when she was arrested for assaulting her boyfriend, Lewis Burton, an unpublished Instagram post the depressed late television star wrote days before she died says
The unpublished Instagram post was shared by her mother in advance of an inquest today which confirmed the 40-year-old Love Island host who was found dead, committed suicide by hanging herself. The post which read that her “whole world and future was swept from under my feet” when she was arrested for assaulting her boyfriend, was never published following advise from her advisers.

Her mother shared the words, which Flack had been advised not to publish, through the Eastern Daily Press- a Norfolk publication in the North of England. Flack pleaded not guilty to the alleged assault at a court hearing in December and was released on bail.
She was ordered to stop any contact with Mr Burton ahead of the trial, which was due to begin in March. Her management company wrongly blamed the Criminal Prosecution Service ( CPS) for pressing ahead with the case despite knowing that mr.Burton no longer wanted to press charges. The criticism forced the CPS to justify its actions by setting out its procedures for pressing charges.
Campaigners have also gathered a petition with over 60,000 signatures calling for tighter regulations on the press, who have been accused of bullying the Love Island host before her tragic suicide. Over 218,000 supporters of a petition on Change.org who want stricter laws to safeguard celebrities and people in the public eye agree.

Paul Frampton Calero, the former UK and Ireland chief executive of media buying group Havas who now leads marketing firm Control v.Exposed, has been urging the advertising industry must rethink the way it supports bullying tabloids in the Uk, Some analytical experts insist the British press cannot at all be blamed for Caroline Flack’s suicide.
Campaigners say the bullying would have impacted her state of mind in those troubling and dark hours.
