Sharing snaps of her late friend, one saw them posing with their first house hunters in Cape Town, while the second saw Jasmine and Jonnie celebrating his 50th birthday.

Jasmine, 49, said: "Dear Jonnie, I miss you. Time goes by too quickly. A year already.

"The hole that you left behind will never be filled. You were (and you still are) an inspiration to so so many people, myself included."

"Love and thoughts to your wonderful family and amazing friends."

The presenter had three young children with his widow Jessica Irwin.

Last year it was revealed how Jonnie had passed his entire £953,000 estate to his wife.

His final will was signed in October 2022.

Documents obtained by The Sun show the brave presenter had £956,967 in assets, reduced to £953,425 after deductions were taken.

The will was signed off by a probate court in Newcastle, where he moved from his native Leicestershire.
