A video of Caroline Flack dancing to Robbie Williams’ Angels on Strictly Come Dancing has resurfaced following the star’s tragic death.
The former Love Island presenter, who won the competition in 2014, took her own life on Saturday 15 February, three weeks before she was set to face her trial over allegations she had assaulted her boyfriend Lewis Burton at her flat in December.
In the video, posted on the Strictly Come Dancing’s YouTube page shortly after the episode aired, the TV host performed a show dance routine with partner Pasha Kovalev to the iconic song.
Dressed in white, and wearing no shoes, the star danced a powerful performance as the judges praised the emotional and heartfelt routine.
Since news of Caroline’s passing was reported, many penned emotional tributes to the late Strictly winner underneath the video.
