Mystery as Brit woman, 29, ‘is found dead in Bali swimming pool’ after popping outside for a cigarette during the night
Natalie Morris, 29, died while on a ten-day sunshine break with boyfriend Andrew Samuel, 30, who had been due to propose on the trip
A BRITISH woman was found dead in a swimming pool on a dream holiday in Bali - just days before her boyfriend was due to propose.
Natalie Morris, 29, was on a ten-day sunshine break with boyfriend Andrew Samuel, 30.
Her family say Natalie, of Cardiff, South Wales, was found unresponsive in a swimming pool and that Andrew was planning to pop the question on the Indonesian island.
A post mortem examination is due to be held to discover the cause of her death on Sunday as heartbroken Andrew was helped by officials from the Foreign Office.
Natalie and Andrew had spent many months planning the dream trip together.
Natalie's older sister Janine Lloyd described her as "a lovely, vibrant person".
She said: "Natalie and her partner were on holiday in Bali - they had been planning it for ages.
"In the night she got up to have a cigarette or whatever and Andrew woke up a few hours later and saw she wasn't in bed."
Janine said Andrew found her unresponsive in the pool of their hotel.
It is thought Natalie's body will be repatriated next week after the results of a post mortem examination in Indonesia.
Janine, 41, said: "He was going to ask her to marry him. She was just a lovely, vibrant person and the life and soul of a party.
"She had so many friends, every single person who has heard about this is devastated. I just can't believe that this has happened to someone so full of life."
Natalie worked as a personal assistant at a Cardiff builder's yard.

But her family say Natalie had "wanderlust" and hoped to travel and live in Australia.
Janine said: "She wanted to see a lot of places. She moved to South Africa for work before and loved it and had planned to go to Australia. She was going to try and stay there."
A spokesperson at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office said: “We are supporting the family of a British national who died in Bali, and are in contact with the Indonesian authorities.”
