Reality star James Argent has expressed his love for his ‘dear partner’ Jake Hall, saying he loves and misses him deeply following his sudden death at the age of 35.
The former The Only Way Is Essex star, known as ‘Arg’, took to Instagram to honor her co-star, admitting she already misses him dearly and praising him as a kind soul.
Below the video, Argent wrote: “I have been processing the loss of my dear friend Jake. Watching videos, looking at photos, listening to voice notes and reading messages from our friendship. It hurts so much.
“This footage was taken about four years ago, when I had just reached a big weight loss goal. Jake was so proud of me that he arranged a full shoot with a videographer/photographer using his own clothing designs in his studio in east London.”
Argent recalled feeling “insecure” about the photo shoot, but revealed that Hall “insisted,” adding, “He did this because he wanted me to finally feel good about myself. He gave me a lot of confidence. He spent the day raising me.”
“We can’t stop laughing and we had a lot of fun together. I’m very lucky to have this beautiful memory.
“Jake had an infectious energy and was one of a kind. I love and miss my partner so much.”
The tribute comes after one of Hall’s friends claimed he had made several suicide attempts before his death, while other friends, including his ex-partner Misse Beqiri, believe his death was accidental.
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.
He also suffered head and neck injuries after apparently crashing through a patio door during a party at the £200-a-night Mallorcan villa, investigators say.
A friend said Hall, who was subject to a court-ordered ‘no contact’ in relation to Beqiri in 2018 following their split, was: ‘murdered by Towie’.
