The former “It girl” and TV personality had revealed just three months ago that she was receiving treatment for a non-malignant brain tumour.

Police are treating the death as unexplained, but not suspicious.

The model is the daughter of former British Olympic skier Charles Palmer-Tomkinson, who is a close friend of Prince Charles and the royal family.

Palmer-Tomkinson was also in attendance for Prince William and Kate’s nuptials at Westminster Abbey in 2011.
