Love Island has paid tribute to former presenter Caroline Flack on the second anniversary of her tragic death.

Caroline tragically took her own life on February 15th, 2020, at the age of 40.

Two years on from her sad passing, her former place of work have shared a tribute to the presenter who was loved by so many.

Alongside an image of Caroline, the Instagram post read: "Caroline, forever in our hearts."

Underneath the tribute, Love Island stars flocked to share their own kind words about the late host.

Jack Fowler, who appeared on the 2018 series of the show, wrote: "Always had a smile on her," followed by a string of love heart emojis.

Meanwhile, series six star Biggs-Marvin Chris urged people to "be kind" in the comment section.

Ahead of today’s anniversary, Olly Murs also spoke about the death of his close friend.

The former X Factor star revealed that he often wonders if he could have done anything to prevent Caroline's death.

The singer, 37, who was a close friend to Caroline, was left devastated by her death and says he still thinks about her every day.

"I miss her every day and I think about her every day," Olly told Daily Star.

"I think about what I could have done to change things, what I could have said.

"There are all sorts of questions I ask myself every day. It’s always difficult."

Caroline's tragic passing came two months after her arrest following an incident involving her boyfriend, Lewis Burton.

She had later discovered that prosecutors were to press ahead with an assault charge.

Her mother, Christine Flack, has sparked a reinvestigation into her late daughter's arrest.

Christine wants answers as to why the TV presenter was charged with the assault despite prosecutors initially saying she should be given a caution.

She told the BBC this week: "I just want those answers to make me feel better and to make me know that I’ve done the right thing by Caroline.

"It leaves us really sad and really angry because we want to know why they charged her.

"I just want the truth out there. I know it won’t bring her back but I’ve got to do it for her."
