Towie’s Yazmin Oukhellou heartbroken over tragic death of friend – a year after losing boyfriend in horror crash
EX-TOWIE star Yazmin Oukhellou has been left heartbroken again after her friend's tragic death - a year after she lost her boyfriend in a horror car crash.
The reality TV favourite joined a string of stars sharing tributes on social media to Dean Harvey, who is understood to have died suddenly in a motorcycle accident.
Yazmin took to her Instagram Stories and posted a memory of happier times with Dean as the pair laughed together in a video.
She tagged him in the post and wrote over the top: "When I was winding you up about your hair, still can’t believe you’re gone. Broken."
The star - who last year survived a crash which killed her boyfriend Jake McLean - also penned beneath a recent photo of Dean dressed up for a wedding on his Instagram page: "Truly so lost for words love you."
Towie star Ella Rae Wise wrote beneath the same snap: "You rest easy up there."

Ashley Cain, who rose to fame on Ex On The Beach, shared a message supporting Dean's 20-year-old son Rio, and wrote: "I'm so sorry brother, it hurt me to read this.
"I'm sending you so much love and strength during this time and your father will be in my prayers tonight. May he rest in paradise."
Hollywood actor Tamer Hassan said Dean had supported him through some tough times, and "everyone loved" the boxing enthusiast.
Tamer said: "Today for me is a very very sad day my dear friend @dean__harvey has passed may you rest in beautiful peace brother.

"I want to say in life people come and go sometimes you fall out and sometimes you don’t and, sometimes there are the very few that what ever they do good or bad you just can’t help but love them.
"Dean my friend you was that man. You had a good heart and was always there for me in my dark days, and for that I will always be grateful. I will miss you even though sometimes you used to drive me mad. Again my friend rest in beautiful peace."
It comes a year after Yazmin was left seriously injured following a horror car crash in Turkey.
The 29-year-old survived the horror car smash that killed Jake McLean, 33, but was forced to break her own arm to escape the car.
