The family of a "beautiful" teen say she took her own life because she couldn't face self-isolating during the coronavirus crisis.
Waitress Emily Owen, 19, from Kings Lynn, Norfolk, died in hospital on Sunday after being found critically ill on Wednesday, March 18.
Her family said she became overwhelmed by the impeding health crisis and the “mental health impacts of isolation”. The MailOnline reports Emily warned that: “More people will die from suicide during this than the virus itself”.
She took her own life after feeling her "world" was closing in while faced with her "plans being cancelled and being stuck inside”, her family said in an online tribute.
