I have to be honest I have no idea who she is, however to take ones own life due to what seems to be the presure of life is a terrible thing and my condolences are with her family
 
Required reading on the subject of social media shaming.

No what I mean is it contributed to the situation. She obviously had issues and being a presenter based purely on appealing to youth and her looks and the fact she constantly looked for younger men, definitely wouldn’t have helped.

I think if you’re in the limelight and you batter your boyfriend and twat him over the head with a lamp, you deserve abuse. Had it been a man doing that to his missus he’d have been stoned to death. Certainly don’t think for one second she deserves to die, sickening to think what position she was in to do such a thing and absolutely terrible for her family and friends. I wouldn’t blame social media for this though

True. Good evidence of lack of stability and rationale thinking
 
Now being reported on the BBC, very sad news.

Nobody truly knows know what battles people are fighting inside, being in the public eye must make these battles harder still.

Tragic news RIP.

There's definitely an argument that certain actions deserve to be shamed (although on social media, this always goes way over the top, especially when it's women). I'd be reluctant to blame social media or her TV show at this point too. She obviously had serious issues other than that, although it's also worth mentioning that the person with serious issues is also probably the one most likely to react badly to the subsequent backlash on social media, so there needs to be some responsibility.
 
I’ve lost two really close friends to suicide, it happens everyday, just because she’s “famous” its headline news!! no idea who she is & couldn’t give a fuck to be honest, what will be will be

She battered her fella , used to date younger men very attractive women
 
Just shows how fucked up and poisonous social media is. I’ve spent the last 24 hours reading comment after comment from people launching into City with such aggression and glee at our ban. I’m now seeing those same people saying shit like ‘ RIP Caroline Flack, social media is so toxic and disgraceful’. These people are exactly the source of many peoples suffering.
