Reality TV star Georgia Kousoulou has paid tribute to her former The Only Way Is Essex (Towie) co-star Jake Hall on the day of his funeral.
Kousoulou, 34, posted the order of service for the service on Instagram shortly after it took place on Friday, and wrote that it was “a day for you” as she remembered Hall.
It had a picture of Hall wearing a light-grey pinstriped suit and sunglasses, and said that the funeral took place at St Mary’s Church in Wanstead, east London.
Kousoulou also added the track Childhood by Barry Can’t Swim.
Hall was best known for his almost decade-long stint on Towie, having joined in 2015 and quit in 2024, and also ran a menswear brand called By Jake Hall.
He was found dead at a holiday villa in Majorca last month.
Albanian model Misse Beqiri was also among the mourners who paid tribute to Hall on Friday, and shared a selfie on her Instagram story of the TV star kissing her forehead while they are on a beach.
Beqiri, 39, who has an eight-year-old daughter with Hall, did not caption the photo.
Beqiri previously posted a lengthy tribute on social media and said her heart was “shattered” by his death, and that she loved him from “the very first moment I saw you”.
In the post, the Real Housewives Of Cheshire star also said she was “forever grateful” for their daughter River and that he will “always live on through her”.
Celebrity DJ Fat Tony was also among those paying tribute to Hall on the day of his funeral, and said there was an “incredible turn out of love” there.
The musician, born Tony Marnach, posted a photo of Hall and wrote: “What a send off.
“A day of sadness and joyful memories, but the send off you deserved. Incredibly emotional. We love you @JakeHall xxx.”
EastEnders star Patsy Palmer also commented: “Beautiful Jake.”
Tributes have poured in for Hall over the past month, including from his ex-girlfriend and former Towie co-star Chloe Lewis, who wrote on Instagram that he was “such a massive and special part of my life”.
They dated in their teenage years and starred in the ITV reality show together, where they were known for their tumultuous on-off relationship, which finally ended in 2016.
Other celebrities paying tribute included reality star Vas J Morgan, who said Hall’s death was a “deeply difficult loss”, and Emmerdale actor Ryan Thomas, who recalled the last message he received from Hall.
