Caroline Flack’s best friend had posted an emotional tribute to the dead TV presenter just three days after the pair were seen laughing together at a climbing centre.
Mollie Grosberg, a TV producer, took to Instagram to post a picture of Flack cuddling a small black dog and wrote: ‘I don’t always see the point of Instagram tributes after someone has died.
‘But I have 150 thousand beautiful videos and pictures of this woman that I just want to share so everyone remembers her in the way she deserves.
Caroline Flack looked relaxed and care-free as she enjoyed wall climbing with a friend at The Castle Climbing Centre in London on Wednesday night
‘She is our best friend and we are broken but every message does mean everything to us.’
The TV presenter, aged 40, took her own life yesterday after a worried friend who was staying with her went to the shops, leaving her alone at her London flat.
Not a fan? The giggling presenter ran over to her pal and exclaimed: ‘Ooh, I don’t like it!’
The friend, a producer, couldn’t get back into the flat when she returned. She called Flack’s father Ian who gained entry to the flat where he found the star’s body.
In the video Ms Grosberg posted to Instagram on Wednesday night, a giggling Caroline was seen attempting to the climb the wall but backtracking as she got too high.

Flack appeared in good spirits during the clip which was captioned: ‘We r professional climbers.’
As Caroline attempted to find her next move, she slipped and jumped to the ground with the giggling presenter running over to her pal saying: ‘Ooh, I don’t like it!’
Flack took her own life yesterday, just two weeks before she was due to stand trial after being charged with assaulting her boyfriend, Lewis Burton, 36.
In the lead up to her death she was described by friends as feeling ‘she was on her own’ and ‘couldn’t see a way out’, and she was struggling with her mental health and using anti-depressants.

The TV presenter’s death was confirmed by the family, who said: ‘We can confirm that our Caroline passed away today on the 15th February. We would ask that the press respect the privacy of the family at this difficult time.’
One friend told the Mirror: ‘Caroline couldn’t bear the thought of going through the court case. She felt her career would never recover from this – and she felt humiliated in front of the world. In the end she just couldn’t see a way out. She didn’t know how to fix herself.’
One friend also said she had been on anti-depressants: ‘She went to a climbing wall with one of her pals, and they were trying to keep her spirits up but she was going deeper into her depression. In the last few weeks she was with a lot of her friends and rarely alone.’
