Half of the posts on this thread demonstrate the very issue at question here.
The posters will of course deny this and mutter something about this not being social media, not knowing who she is, she probably brought it on herself or some equally low rent comment.
Ultimately a human being has been driven to the extreme of taking their own life.
Regardless of your view point on her talents that's a very very sad thing to happen.

You've missed off the very real potential of time in jail from your list. Celebrity

But without knowing for certain, if she is as bad as the press have made out then she brought on much of her own misery.
She had the potential to live a life many would love to.

Never heard of her.
Never heard of Love Island either.
Sounds like a pile of s

RIP though, sad when anyone dies.

I'm sorry she died at such a young age though.

There are times you see and read about people in the media where your every instinct is that the coverage really isn't doing them any favours.
The media don't learn sadly.
The Media didn't tell her to abuse & assault her boyfriend, also up until her abusing her boyfriend she got good coverage from the media.There are times you see and read about people in the media where your every instinct is that the coverage really isn't doing them any favours.

It's sad she took her own life but that's not down to the media.

Quite so. Get near it, really near it to begin to understand the anguish someone is suffering to go through with suicide. You look at a rope or drugs and suddenly the solution to your pain is right infront of you. If your support network doesn't live up to their words it's another deep blow.The posters will of course deny this and mutter something about this not being social media, not knowing who she is, she probably brought it on herself or some equally low rent comment.

It can happen to anyone and if you can't see a way out, this becomes the choice.
Such a shame. Like most suicides her last days and hours must been moments of terrible and lonely dispair.
It can be a terrifying swift descent from success and happiness to bleak depression. I hope some people will get a call and be saved over the next few days. It would be one positive thing from a sad story.

Yep, it wasn't the media who smacked her sleeping boyfriend over the head with a lamp.
This post nicely highlights the problem, she hadn't even stood trial yet but the press absolutely destroyed her (and have now quickly removed the tens of stories published about her in recent months).I can't help but think if the gender roles were reversed this would be a different conversation.
Some of the flippant comments on here are quite disgusting yet sadly unsurprising. A significant minority of users on here are evidently horrible human beings.

Media had a significant role. Take one look at the Daily Mail App and the Sun. They crucify anyone in the public eye, and yes I don't think she helped herself but constant barrage of bad stories is going to have an impact on your life. It's sad she took her own life but that's not down to the media.

So why is the media automatically blamed here? She is a domestic abuser should papers not report crime now in case the criminal commits suicide? Only time my friends husband was in the paper was because the M1 was shut for a day. He never got to blame anybody else, he had to take responsibility for that one, shame they couldn’t blame Twitter.
She committed suicide nobody else. Her actions why are we washing away personal responsibility
Because she was a celeb? She probably did it to avoid being convicted in court rather than the sun newspaper.

Reverse the sexes. Brutal wife beater tops himself before GBH charge. Sympathy level changed?
And that is a very pertinent point.What if he smashed her in the head with a lamp?
Then topped himself?
Shame she felt suicide was the only option though.
Pity the tosser celebs outpouring their grief on Twitter tonight weren't Round her flat checking she was ok.

I'm confused by this post. It's non of my business. I hope that you don't mean your friend did something that caused the closure of the motorway by doing something harmful.

People die all the time. Mostly without being murdered. Does that mean murderers aren’t responsible for their victims’ death?
Your logic is fundamentally flawed.
Yes that’s exactly the same, I’m sure.Your logic is fundamentally flawed.
Nothing to do with loss of career through her own actions, or criminal convictions or regret or remorse or mental issues.
Papers just the papers they held a gun to her head, she is absolved of all responsibility. We should never ever report domestic abuse again lest we force somebody to commit suicide.

I’ve not written it very well. Yes he jumped in front of a truck and killed himself.His children suffered the most. The whole family suffered greatly and still are suffering. There have been and still are issues many years later. Lives taken different turns that they probably wouldn’t have.
