Flack, who has been a C presenter on UK television since 2002, was found dead at her home in London yesterday. Her family confirmed her death in a Press Association statement. They said: “We can confirm that our Caroline passed away today on the 15th February. “We would ask that the press both respect the privacy of the family at this difficult time.” Flack was due to go on trial on March 4 for allegedly as- saulting her boyfriend, tennis player Lewis Burton, during an incident at her London home on December 12. She denied the charge. The allegations resulted in her stepping down as the host of ITV2’s Love Island for the win- ter season this year. She was replaced by Laura Whitmore, but ITV made clear that the door was open for her return. Flack had hosted Love Island since 2015 and, before that, was a fixture on British TV screens in shows including The X Factor spinoff The Xtra Factor. She also appeared as a guest on the likes of Loose Women and Celebrity Juice, and triumphed on Strictly Come Danc- ing in 2014. Radio host Dan Wootton paid tribute to Flack, who he said was “one of the most extraordinary women” he’s ever met. “She was kind to a fault. She cared like no one else. She was vulnerable. Other people’s feelings meant the world to her,” he tweeted. Caroline Flack was the host of the British version of Love Island which is shot here in Majorca..
