Albanian model Misse Beqiri has posted a loved-up photo with reality star Jake Hall on the day of his funeral.

Beqiri, 39, who has an eight-year-old daughter with Hall, posted a selfie on her Instagram story of the TV star kissing her forehead while they are on a beach.

Hall, 35, was best known for his almost decade-long stint on The Only Way Is Essex (Towie), having joined in 2015 and quit in 2024, and also ran a menswear brand called By Jake Hall.

He was found dead at a holiday villa in Majorca last month.

His funeral is taking place on Friday, with his friends, family and Towie co-stars reportedly among the mourners.

Beqiri previously posted a lengthy tribute on Instagram and said her heart was “shattered” by his death, and that she loved Hall from “the very first moment I saw you”.

In the post, the Real Housewives Of Cheshire star said she was “forever grateful” for their daughter River and that he will “always live on through her”.

Tributes have poured in for Hall over the past month, including from his ex-girlfriend and former Towie co-star Chloe Lewis, who wrote on Instagram that he was “such a massive and special part of my life”.

They dated in their teenage years and went on to star in the ITV reality show together, where they were known for their tumultuous on-off relationship, which finally ended in 2016.

Other celebrities paying tribute included reality star Vas J Morgan, who said Hall’s death was a “deeply difficult loss”, and Emmerdale actor Ryan Thomas, who recalled the last message he received from Hall.

Former Made In Chelsea star Akin Solanke described Hall as an inspiration and celebrity DJ Fat Tony called his death an “awful loss to the world”.
