Amandas post on Instagram read: Utterly devastated to hear of the sudden death of this funny bright beautiful young girl.My heart goes out to her family. For Caroline to feel that death was the only way out breaks my heart ….
Anger doesnt even begin to cover how I feel about her being thrown to the dogs like she was ..
Why was she not shown the same level of consideration, protection ,warmth and importance as other artists in our industry who have struggled recently?

I am certain there is more to her story… I know the truth will out. May she rest in peace and those responsible for this lack of humanity be brave enough to admit their shame.
