Jake Hall’s close friend Ryan Thomas shared the last heartfelt messages the star sent him just days before his tragic death at the age of 35.
Hall was reportedly found dead at the age of 35 in a holiday villa in Mallorca on Thursday, with Spanish authorities investigating allegations that he may have suffered a fatal head injury after crashing into a glass door.
On Friday, sources close to the ongoing investigation said the worst injury Jake suffered was a chest wound caused by a shard of glass from the door he crashed into at the property in Santa Margalida, in the north of the island, early Wednesday morning.
Ryan shared a lengthy Instagram post paying tribute to Jake, where he said he was “in awe” of him when they met.
Ryan, whose fiancée Lucy Mecklenburgh is close friends with Jake’s ex Chloe Lewis, shared a video of him and the star dressed in matching white suits as they partied together.
He wrote: ‘The moment I met Jake, I was in awe of him. I found myself gravitating towards him.
“He was always the coolest guy in the room, he had class, charisma, that magic that no one else had. Anyone who met him, even once, will remember him forever.
‘I used to call him almost every day to remind him how special he was and how much happiness he brought to people through his music, fashion and art. Everything he touched felt effortless, but was actually great.
‘As I write this I can hear him laughing saying: Shut up, idiot.
‘For all the people who admired his talent, what mattered most to him was always his family. He idolized his father, adored his mother, and loved his little brother more than words could explain. You felt it every time he talked about them.
‘His next chapter is now written in the stars and it’s about River. I promise she will grow up surrounded by love and stories about how inspiring and powerful her dad is.
‘You wrote this to me in a message last week, so I’ll send you the same one. I love you mate. More than you will ever know.
Jake Hall’s ex-partner, Misse Beqiri, also reacted to the emotional post.
The Swedish model shares her eight-year-old daughter River with the late television personality, who rose to fame on the reality show. TOWIE in 2015 and appeared in series 14 to 18.
