The mother of reality star Jake Hall’s daughter, Misse Beqiri, has paid tribute to the “deeply loved” TV star after his death aged 35.

The Albanian model wrote that she promises to keep their eight-year-old daughter River “safe, loved, and wrapped in the kind of love you gave effortlessly” in a tribute to Hall on Saturday.

The message was shared to her Instagram along with a carousel of photos of her and their daughter with The Only Way Is Essex (Towie) cast member.

It comes after Hall was found dead on Wednesday at a holiday villa in Majorca.

The Real Housewives of Cheshire star captioned her tribute post with a broken heart emoji, and attached an image which said: “I never thought I would ever have to write this, and the pain of even putting these words down feels unbearable.

“There was no way you were ever supposed to go. My heart is shattered, and so is our daughter’s.

“You lit up every room you walked into – your smile, your charm, your energy that filled the air. The way you loved music, how deeply you felt every sound, your creativity, your mind, your spirit.

“You were so deeply loved by so many people, and seeing the love everyone has for you is both heartbreaking and beautiful all at once.

“Your constant mission to stop me from taking naps still makes me smile.”

Beqiri also told of how she loved Hall from “the very first moment I saw you”, adding: “Together we created the most beautiful girl, the one you loved more than anything in this world, beyond words.

“She adored you – her favourite person, her daddy.

“You will be missed. I promise to keep River safe, loved, and wrapped in the kind of love you gave so effortlessly. You are at peace now.”

The 39-year-old model concluded the post by saying she thinks Hall is “laughing together” with her brother, who died in 2022, and said: “You left behind your mini version, our River, and for that we are forever grateful. You will always live on through her, and you will forever be with us.”

Reality TV star Hall joined the cast of Towie in 2015, and dated co-star Chloe Lewis before quitting in 2024 and he ran menswear brand called By Jake Hall.

Tributes have poured in for Hall over the last few days, with his friend and former Towie co-star Vas J Morgan writing on Instagram that his death was a “deeply difficult loss” and that he wishes they had more time together.

Former Made In Chelsea star Akin Solanke also posted a photo with Hall on Instagram and wrote: “If I never told you how much you inspired me, I hope you knew regardless.”

On Wednesday, celebrity DJ Fat Tony shared a tribute to social media and said: “Devastating news we love you @jakehall such an awful loss to the world you beautiful man x.”
