TOWIE's Jake Hall reportedly dies aged 35 after tragic 'holiday villa accident' in Spain

The Only Way is Essex star Jake Hall has died aged 35 after an accident in Spain, according to reports.

Hall joined the cast of TOWIE in 2015, appearing between seasons 14 and 17, and was well known for both his time on the reality show and his subsequent fashion brand.

He is believed to have been found dead in a holiday villa in Santa Margalida, Mallorca where he was staying, and to have returned home alone after a night out.

No arrests have yet been made, though six people staying at the villa have been questioned by police.

A police source also told The Daily Star: "We are focusing on the theory the victim died in a tragic accident after hitting his head against [a glass door] but it is still too early to say definitely what happened."

An FCDO spokesperson told LADbible Group: "We are supporting the family of a British man who has died in Spain and are in contact with the local authorities."

Hall leaves behind a young daughter, River, who is eight years old. Hall was also in an on-and-off relationship with River's mother, model and fellow reality star Misse Beqiri, but they split after their engagement ended in 2018. She has since released a statement following the news.

The reality star's last post on his Instagram before his death showed him dancing with his daughter, painting, and appearing to enjoy his time in Mallorca, posting the video with the caption: "Life is b*llocks sometimes but I’m gonna try remember the good things - looking through things - I’m just making art - in many forms."

Fans rushed to comment on the post to pay their respects, with one comment saying: "Rest In Peace Jake! keep dancing up there!"

Blue star Anthony Costa commented: "What a lovely bloke you were mate R.I.P."

Another fan said: "So shocked to see that he has passed away. So young really sad for him, and his little daughter. Just awful."

A third commented: "So sad to see the devastating news. Sending all my love to your beautiful daughter, family and friends. Terrible news."

Outside of TV the 35-year-old built a career in fashion, having launched a clothing brand after a previous attempt had collapsed.

ITV, who air TOWIE, said in a statement to LADbible: "Jake was a part of the TOWIE family for a number of years and we send our very deepest sympathies to his family and friends following today's very sad news."

Hall's death is the second tragic incident involving the TOWIE cast this year, with Jordan Wright having died in Thailand earlier this year.

Wright died after reportedly being found in a drainage ditch in Thailand, and was 33 at the time of his death.
