The inquest into Sophie's death was opened on June 27 during a very short hearing at North Tyneside Coroners Court on June 27.

It is believed Sophie was suffering from mental health problems

At the hearing, which lasted less than a minute, the case was adjourned.

It is believed Sophie, who appeared on ITV's reality TV show Love Island in 2016 and also worked as a model, had been struggling with mental health problems in the run up to her death.

During the hearing Trever Carroll, Assistant Coroner for South Northumberland, said: 'Following initial inquiries it is appropriate to open an inquest into her death.

'(I will) adjourn at this stage for further inquiries to determine cause of death.'

None of Sophie's friends or family was present at the hearing.

Following her death, the owner of Tyne Tees Models, Lesley Lister, who scouted the star when she was just 16, said: 'Despite her success she was humble. It didn't matter what job she did for us, whether big or small, she approached it in the same way.

'She was also a great mentor to the younger girls. If any of them were having problems she would take the time to talk to them, and try and help. She would make people feel much better.

'Everyone absolutely loved her. She was a beautiful girl, but clever with it.

'I first spotted her on a night out when she was 16. I went over and spoke to her and she was gorgeous, very enthusiastic.

'She became part of the Tyne Tees family and the rest is history.

'Sophie knew exactly what she wanted and went for it.

Sophie attended the prestigious Dame Allan's School in Fenham, Newcastle, where fees are around £4,400 per term. She graduated from Northumbria University with a 2:1 in Media, Culture & Society in 2007.

Over the years Sophie has juggled positions in marketing and recruitment with working as a model and reality TV star.

Dr John Hind, principal of Dame Allan's Schools, paid tribute to Sophie after her death, saying: 'Staff who recall Sophie remember her as a fun loving, happy pupil who enlivened the schools and we all regret her sad passing at such a young age.'
