Missé Beqiri is paying tribute to her ex Jake Hall after his untimely death at age 35.
“I never thought I would ever have to write this, and the pain of even putting these words down feels unbearable,” Beqiri, 39, wrote in a Saturday, May 9, Instagram statement. “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 that filled the air. The way you loved music, how deeply you felt every sound, your creativity, your mind, your spirit. You were so deeply loved by so many people, and seeing the love everyone has for you is both heartbreaking and beautiful all at once.”
Beqiri further stated that she loved Hall “from the very first moment” the met.
“Together, we created the most beautiful girl, the one you loved more than anything in this world, beyond words,” she continued, referring to their 8-year-old daughter, River. “Your love for her was so strong it almost scared me because I knew you would go to the ends of the earth for her.”
Beqiri added, “You will be missed. I promise to keep River safe, loved and wrapped in the kind of love you gave so effortlessly. You are at peace now. … You left behind your mini version, our River, and for that we are forever grateful. You will always live on through her, and you will forever be with us.”
Although Beqiri and Hall were no longer romantically involved at the time of his death, the pair remained linked since they shared daughter River. Following news of Hall’s death, Beqiri’s rep released a statement to The Mirror.
“At this time, Missé’s focus is on supporting and protecting their child as they come to terms with this,” the May 7 statement read. “The family are asking for privacy, compassion and respect while they grieve privately.”
Earlier that day, The Sun reported that Hall was found dead in a villa following a house party in Majorca, Spain. He appeared to sustain fatal head wounds, leading authorities to speculate that he may have hit his head on a glass door.
Neighbors allegedly heard “loud noises” hours before police arrived at the scene, though one person told local outlet Ultima Hora that Hall “hadn’t been causing problems” and seemed “relatively normal.”
Still, the neighbor claimed to be scared of some of Hall’s friends. “I began to hear a very loud noise, as if they were drilling something,” the individual alleged. “They stopped after about five minutes, and then I fell asleep.”
While police reportedly questioned four men and two women staying at the property, no arrests were made at the time. An autopsy was scheduled to take place in Palma.
Shortly before his death, Hall posted a cryptic message on social media.
“Life is bollocks sometimes but I’m gonna try to remember the good things,” he wrote via Instagram on May 5. “Looking through things — I’m just making art — in many forms.”
Hall achieved reality TV stardom while appearing on seasons 14 through 17 of the British series The Only Way Is Essex from 2015 to 2016.
“Jake was a part of the TOWIE family for a number of years and we send our very deepest sympathies to his family and friends following today’s very sad news,” read a statement from The Only Way Is Essex.
Beqiri, for her part, got her start on reality TV on the British series The Real Housewives of Cheshire, appearing as a main cast member from 2016 to 2017. Earlier this year, she starred on season 4 of Ladies of London: The New Reign, a rebooted version of the Bravo reality series that originally aired from 2014 to 2017.
After welcoming their daughter in November 2017, Hall and Beqiri got engaged in May 2018. However, the on-off couple split shortly afterward.
In addition to River, Beqiri is also the mother of son Julian from her marriage to ex-husband Anders Lindegaard.
