Singer James Morrison’s partner Gill Catchpole’s cause of death has been confirmed, after she died aged 45.
The news was revealed by a source on Sunday, who said Morrison was ‘devastated’ by her sudden death after she was found at home in Gloucestershire on Friday.
It’s now been confirmed that Catchpole died by hanging, a coroner was told today.
The coroner was informed that police were satisfied there were no suspicious circumstances involved.
Catchpole was found by Morrison at her home on Friday, to which he had a key, after he had been contacted by a friend who couldn’t get access.
Catchpole shared two children with the singer and guitarist, eldest daughter Elsie, 15, born in 2008, and Ada, five, who they welcomed 10 years later in 2018.
Morrison described Catchpole as his hero in a 2019 interview and said he could never replace her.
Metro.co.uk has approached James Morrison’s reps for comment.
