Caroline Flack was a British television presenter who died by suicide on February 15, 2020, at the age of 40. Her death followed a period of intense media coverage after she was charged with assaulting her boyfriend, Lewis Burton, in December 2019. She had stepped down from hosting Love Island in December 2019 as the case proceeded, and she did not live to face trial. The coroner later ruled that her death was suicide, noting that a combination of fluctuating mental health and distress, including the impact of the impending prosecution and media scrutiny, contributed to the tragedy.
