CELEBRITIES are turning up in droves for Jake Hall‘s funeral this afternoon.
Boxer Derek Chisora is among the celebrities arriving at Grade-I church St Mary the Virgin, in Wanstead, London, for the service.
Cops found the 35-year-old former reality show star in a pool of blood after he ran through a single-glazed glass door.
He was found dead at a Spanish holiday villa with head injuries after a night out partying on May 6.
Officers were called to the rented house in Santa Margalida in the north of the holiday island at around 7.30am.
Police quizzed four men and two women staying at the house.
They reportedly told officers that they had been out in the evening and continued partying after returning to the property in the early hours.
Authorities have not released the nationalities of the others who were at the property.
The Guardia Civil confirmed there was no “criminal activity”.
Hours before he died, he shared a last post on Instagram vowing to “remember the good things”.
Set to the Rolling Stones’ classic Beast of Burden, it showed him enjoying painting, Spanish scenery and fashion.
It was captioned: “Life is bollocks sometimes but I’m gonna try remember the good things – ️ looking through things – I’m just making art – in many forms.”
Footballer and model Jake leaves behind the mother of his child, Misse Beqiri, who he had an on-off relationship with since 2016.
The couple share a daughter, River, who was born in November 2017.
Misse posted an emotional tribute, writing: “There was no way you were ever supposed to go. My heart is shattered, and so is our daughter’s.
“You lit up every room you walked into – your smile, your charm, your energy filled the air.”
She then paid tribute to his love of music and creativity, as well as how many people really loved him.
Chloe Lewis also posted a tribute to her “first love” at the time of his death,
Chloe, who began a 10 year relationship with Jake when she was 16, shared a collection of photos on Instagram from their time together and wrote heartbreaking words that moved celeb pals including Michelle Keegan and Ferne McCann.
“My first love, my childhood sweetheart,” began Chloe. “A love that taught me so much about life and myself, and even more so now your presence is no longer here.”
In their early 20s Towie turned them into stars, but fame had a detrimental impact on their relationship.
Chloe said neither of them wanted to be in the public eye and the pressures of the show put a strain on their romance.
Leading tributes to the star at the time of his death was legendary DJ Fat Tony, who shared an image of the star and captioned it: “Devastating news we Love you such an awful loss to the world you beautiful man x.”
Blue’s Antony Costa wrote: “So sad, what a lovely bloke you were mate R.I.P.”
Love Island’s Jack Fincham wrote on a picture of the pair posted on Instagram: “Cannot believe what I have just read. Condolences to Jake’s family a very sad day. Rest in perfect peace mate.”
Jake first shot to fame on The Only Way Is Essex in 2015, where he famously dated Chloe Lewis before quitting the show in 2024.
