Laura Whitmore has posted a heartfelt tribute to her close pal Caroline Flack following the Love Island host’s untimely death.
The 40-year-old was found dead at her London home, her family confirmed.
Taking to Twitter, Laura, who took over from Caroline’s Love Island presenting duties, posted a picture of herself alongside Caroline with the caption: “I’m trying to find the words but I can’t.”
Next to the snap, she posted a poem that read: “To lose someone so special is really hard to read it hardly seems believable that you’re no longer there.
“You left us far too early before your time, it seems and now you’ll never have the chance to fulfill all those dreams.
“However hard it is though we’ll take comfort in the thought of all the memories we have and the happiness you brought.
“You always lived life to the full but ours won’t be the same until the day when we can see your smiling face again.”

Flack decided to step down from fronting the Winter Love Island series following a “domestic disturbance” at her North London home.
Laura filled Flack’s shoes, and, at the time, the Irish stunned revealed Flack put her forward for the role.
“She has been incredibly gracious and supportive of me taking on the role for the winter series,” Laura told MailOnline.
