Wales police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the tragic death of Honey Foxx French, a 12-year-old girl who passed away at her Milford Haven home in Pembrokeshire on October 19.
Foxx’s family has declined to reveal the nature of the fatal accident, describing it only as a “game gone wrong.” Emergency services, including police and medical specialists, were called as soon as they realized the kid was in danger. Honey was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities opened an inquest today despite initial reports suggesting no suspicious circumstances. An autopsy was conducted at West Wales General Hospital, but its results have yet to be revealed.
“With great sadness, we share that a member of our school community passed away unexpectedly over the weekend,” Ysgol Penrhyn Dewi, Honey’s church school, said.

“Honey French was beloved by all and contributed greatly to our school. Her warmth, sense of humor, and creative talents will be deeply missed by everyone here and in the broader community,” the statement continued.
Honey’s mother, Jessica French, reflected on the heartbreaking accident in an interview with local media, confirming that her daughter’s passing was the result of an accident while playing but providing no further details. “Our hearts are shattered; she was our most loved little girl.”
Authorities have revealed that the inquest will be adjourned until April 10, 2025, to allow further investigations to continue.
The Milford Haven Business Circle, a community close to the girl’s family, held a candle-lit ceremony to encourage people to unite in honor of Honey’s memory.
“By lighting candles, we symbolize her enduring spirit and the unwavering love she brought to the world. Honey’s light will forever shine brightly, guiding us through the darkness,” a community representative wrote.
A fundraiser organized by a friend of the family was a resounding success, surpassing its initial goal four times
