A coroner warns that the combination of drink and drugs makes people 16 times more likely to harm themselves.
Love Island star Sophie Gradon hanged herself after drinking alcohol and taking cocaine, a coroner has found.
Gradon, who appeared in the second series of the reality show in 2016, was found dead at her home in Ponteland, Northumberland, by her boyfriend and his brother last June, an inquest heard. There was no evidence of any third party involvement in the 32-year-old's death, Coroner Eric Armstrong said.Toxicology tests showed she had a blood reading of 201mg per 100ml of blood - around three times the legal driving limit, in addition to cocaine.
Research in the United States has found that combining drugs and alcohol can make someone 16 times more likely to kill themselves, Mr Armstrong added."If Sophie's death is to serve any purpose at all, that message should go out far and wide," he said. His conclusion reads:"Sophie Hannah Gradon, having consumed alcohol and cocaine, took her own life by hanging."
