Caroline Flack's best friend Lou Teasdale shares heartbreaking photo of Love Island host holding her daughter

Caroline Flack's best friend has shared a heartbreaking photograph of the Love Island host playing with her daughter as a baby.

Celebrity hair stylist Lou Teasdale - who was with Flack hours before she died - captioned a picture of her holding up her daughter with: "This little lady misses you Caroline".

In an Instagram story posted on Monday afternoon, she added: "Anyone have any nice advice for me with an eight-year-old learning about grief?

"She's lost two very special people who lived with us in the space of 12 months and I wanna make sure I'm saying the right thing - if there's such a thing."

Flack was found dead at the age of 40 at her home in east London on Saturday having taken her own life.

Ms Teasdale also posted a gallery of pictures to her instagram account, writing: "I don't know if this is okay or not, but Caroline and Lou have so many beautiful photos together that I decited (sic) to make this little tribute!

"Hope Lou is okay because i'm sure Caroline is going to be always with her! I hope this post makes your heart smile a little bit."

It comes after Flack's friend Mollie Grosberg shared a Valentine's Day photo of the former Love Island star in an extended Instagram tribute.

Grosberg, a TV producer, shared a series of candid videos and photos of Flack on Instagram, including a snap apparently taken on Valentine’s Day.

The picture showed Flack wearing a red dress, with the caption: “Our funny Valentine bought us cookies and oat milk this year.”

In an earlier tribute to Flack, Grosberg posted a gallery of selfies of her and her friend alongside an emotional statement.

“I can’t even find the right words to say here and I’m sure it sounds rambly but she deserves a million tributes and more,” she wrote.

“Everyone remember her in the best way Carrie always had a smile on her face, a naughty laugh and her heart open wide.

"When she let you in, you were the luckiest and she taught me to love everyone and forgive everyone.​
