The inquest into the death of Norfolk-raised TV presenter Caroline Flack is due to open on Wednesday, it has been confirmed.

The hearing will open and adjourn at Poplar Coroner's Court in London in the morning, a representative of the court has said.

The former Love Island host was found dead at her home in east London on Saturday, having taken her own life.

Miss Flack was born in Enfield, but grew up in Norfolk - her family moved to Scotgate Close in Great Hockham after her father received a promotion while working for Coca-Cola.

She spent much of her childhood living close to Thetford and went to school near Watton, before returning to London to embark upon a career that would lead her to the presenting berth on Love Island.
