Socialite Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, 45, was found dead at her London flat (pictured left) yesterday. Doctors had recently cleared her of brain cancer, but she was also known to be suffering from a rare and debilitating auto-immune condition, which, left untreated, would eat away at her lungs and kidneys, viciously devouring her body from within. Police, who were called to her home just before 2pm, said her death was not suspicious, but they are treating it as 'unexplained'. (She is pictured, inset, with former boyfriend Duncan James, in 2012 following a party; top right, her slurred appearance on Frank Skinner's show which led to another stint in rehab; and bottom right with her family, who were close friends with the Royals.)

Nurse died after snorting cocaine mixed with vet medicine

Penny Hargreaves, from Blackburn, would take cocaine occasionally with friends - but died after a party binge when she unwittingly shared a contaminated batch. Coroner Michael Singleton condemned recreational drug use as 'acts of crass stupidity' saying he was 'blown away' by the number of people who took cocaine without knowing what was in it. He said: 'Please, please, please don't let Penny Hargreaves have died in vain. Learn from what has happened. This was a very, very tragic death of a young girl who had her whole life in front of her. Penny had cocaine in her system and she had snorted several lines of cocaine.'

The devices were seized at homes in Bolton, Bootle, Manchester and Cheadle in early morning raids. The suspects, aged between 33 and 60, were arrested but have been released on bail.

Furious Jeremy Corbyn accuses BBC of peddling 'fake news' in car-crash interview as he denies huge Labour rebellion and resignations over Brexit Bill are a 'disaster'

The veteran left-winger bizarrely insisted the party was 'united' despite 52 MPs defying his orders to vote against the historic legislation last night. Struggling to control his temper, Mr Corbyn denied that the dramatic decision by shadow business secretary Clive Lewis to resign rather than vote in favour of triggering Article 50 was a 'disaster'. And he responded furiously when BBC Breakfast presenter Charlie Stayt asked whether he had told his inner circle a date when he will stand down as Labour leader.

Tara Palmer-Tomkinson dies aged 45 after brain tumour

Tara Palmer Tomkinson has been found dead at her London home following a battle with a brain tumour. Workmen in her building said they had not seen her since a 'loud bang' came from her flat. The 45-year-old former It girl revealed in November she had been receiving treatment for a non-malignant growth in her pituitary gland. Police were called to a flat near Earl's Court shortly before 2pm this afternoon and found the former model dead. Her family have been told. Palmer-Tomkinson rose to fame in the 1990s as a party-loving socialite in London's celebrity circle. She made headlines with a £400-a-day cocaine addiction, which left her needing septum reconstruction surgery in 2006. The socialite was close to Prince Charles and had a close relationship with the Royal Family. She attended William and Kate's wedding.

Tara Palmer-Tomkinson's defining moments

Tara Palmer-Tomkinson was found dead in her London flat yesterday aged 45, after a life in the spotlight from skiing with Prince Charles to making a big impression at glitzy parties around the world. A regular on the London party scene in the 1990s and 2000s, Miss Palmer-Tomkinson frequently hit the headlines with her extravagant lifestyle and revealing outfits. She had a well-documented battle with cocaine, spending up to £400 a day at the height of her addiction before heading to rehab and reinventing herself as a reality television star.

A Brazilian cop spotted Pilipa, who she initially mistook for a beggar, shuffling down a dirt track in bare feet, and dirty, unwashed Bermuda shorts and a vest. He had no passport, without without any form of identification.

Richard Branson's Necker Island's famous guests

Former US President Barack Obama (top row, right) has become the latest big name to enjoy Sir Richard Branson's hospitality at his personal paradise, Necker Island (inset), in the Caribbean. Necker is a party island, beloved of the celebrity hoi polloi, from Kates Moss and Winslet to ex-Baywatch star David Hasselhoff and the odd royal, global guru or head of state who fancies a freebie. Anyone, in fact, who doesn't mind sharing a hot tub with the host for obligatory selfies (pictured top with Harry Styles, far left, and Sir Richard, second right), or being snapped joshing around with him on the beach or in the water - and then seeing those photographs shared with millions. (Also pictured are: top row from left: Kate Winslet with Sir Richard and his mother Eve and Ronnie Wood and David Hasselhoff; bottom row from left: Princess Diana with Princes Harry and William in 1990, Mariah Carey and Kelly Brook)

In one of the photos it really does look like the ex-President and the Virgin boss are in a relationship. Like a honeymoon couple frolicking with each other in the balmy Caribbean.

Gary Lineker saves a fortune by avoiding tax in schemes

From the moral high ground that Gary Lineker so resolutely occupies, he enjoys a crystal clear view of world affairs. Brexit Britain is a 'dystopian land' where the decision by voters to leave the EU makes him 'feel ashamed of my generation'. He has tweeted a number of times and protested against Donald Trump (top inset and right). Public attitudes to refugees can be 'hideously racist and utterly heartless'. Nigel Farage is 'disgusting'. Iain Duncan Smith is an 'irritable dunce'. Then at the weekend, he went into bat against an old foe - popular newspapers (bottom left inset), which had exhibited the temerity to reveal that David Beckham's efforts to manipulate the honours system had been stymied by his equally vigorous attempts to avoid paying tax. Yet one important area of Lineker's life is curiously absent. It also, coincidentally, has almost never been properly addressed in his public statements, or endless commentary on social media. Namely: His colourful tax affairs.

Whisked from an orphanage onto Madonna's private jet: Twin sisters from Malawi begin their new life after the 'overjoyed' star adopts them - but not before judge asked 'uncomfortable questions' about star's plans for the girls

Madonna has confirmed the adoption of twin sisters from Malawi with a picture on Instagram. Madonna's new twin daughters are 'very happy' and 'very excited' as they prepare to board a private jet to their new life in America, their government guardian has revealed. Malawian orphans Stella and Esther, four, pictured above, walked hand in hand with the 58-year-old star out of court yesterday after a judge yesterday approved her application to become their mother. Court appointed guardian Dominic Misomali told MailOnline: 'You could see the love she had for them in her face and she was already a mother to them. The girls are very happy and very excited about what is happening to them.' Madonna had been trying to adopt the girls for two years and made previous visits to the nation to visit them.

TJ Maxx & Marshalls scrap signs for Ivanka Trump's brand

Ivanka Trump's beleaguered fashion brand has taken another kicking after the bosses of TJ Maxx and Marshalls demanded stores throw out her advertisements and take down her special displays. Last week workers at the chains - which are both owned by TJX Companies - were told that her products would no longer hold pride of place in the stores (the picture on the right dates from December, before the memo was sent and was posted by a #GrabYourWallet supporter). 'Effective immediately, please remove all Ivanka Trump merchandise from features and mix into [other products on the racks],' the note, leaked to The New York Times, read. 'All Ivanka Trump signs should be discarded.' It's yet another blow for the socialite's business, which has already been dropped entirely by a string of retailers, including luxury chains Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus, as a major anti-Trump boycott continues.

Cincinnati Zoo cares for 3 Malayan tiger cubs

Three Malayan tiger cubs (left) were born on Friday at the Cincinnati Zoo. The adorable cubs are currently being cared for by staff in the zoo's nursery after their mother rejected them at birth. First-time mother Cinta's maternal instincts 'didn't kick in', according to the zoo's website. Now, nursery staffers are keeping the cubs warm (bottom right) and feeding them (top right) so the their body temperatures won't get too low without their mother's warmth. Zoo officials said it's not 'uncommon' for first-time tiger moms to reject their young and sometimes the mothers can be aggressive and even harm or kill their young. The cubs will be moved to Cat Canyon when they're weaned and no longer require constant care. Visitors should be able to see them in their outdoor habitat in early spring.
