The Spice Girls and Howard Donald, 54, have led tributes to dancer Dani Hampson, who died on the morning of her wedding day. Her fiance, X Factor star Tom Mann, announced the heartbreaking news on Monday.
Dani died on Saturday June 18, hours before the couple planned to tie the knot.
She had a successful career as a dancer and became a mum to the couple’s son Bowie eight months ago.
Tom’s post read: “I can’t believe I am writing these words but my darling Dani – my best friend, my everything and more, the love of my life – passed away in the early hours of Saturday morning, 18th June.
“On what was supposed to be the happiest day of our lives ended in irreversible heartbreak.
“I feel like I have cried an ocean. We never made it to the alter; or got to say our vows, or dance our first dance, but I know you know that you were my entire world and the best thing that has ever happened to me, Danielle.
“I will wear this ring that I was always supposed to wear as a sign of my unconditional love to you.”
In response to Tom’s post on Monday, many big names posted tributes of their own.
Take That star Howard Donald revealed he had worked with the mum-of-one, writing: “I’m gutted beyond words that one of our dancers on wonderland has passed away.
“What a beautiful and super talented dancer she was.
“I’m happy to say I danced with her and the uk dance world will be shocked and saddened just like I am.”
Ellie Goulding directed her message at Tom, writing: “I’m thinking of you non stop… You are so strong. Here for you always. Love you xxxx.”
Meanwhile Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts shared a tender throwback snap of “our little crew” and wrote: “Dani you gorgeous human. Gone too soon.
