X Factor star Tom Mann has announced the death of his fiancée Dani.

The heartbroken singer revealed his partner died on the morning of their wedding day.

“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,” he wrote.

“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.

Tom said he feels lost and broken after losing Danielle so suddenly.

But he has promised to be strong for their son, who is due to turn one this year.
