Tara Palmer-Tomkinson dead: The star looked downcast as she was pictured for the final time

The star, who was found dead in her home earlier today, appeared to keep a low-profile in the final images.

Dressed in a pair of blue jeans, a striped jumper and navy peacoat, she looked worlds away from the It Girl who dominated the front pages of the tabloids in the Noughties.

She seemed eager to go incognito as she paired her casual attire with suede ankle boots and a pair of oversized sunglasses.

Tara's short brunette locks were left loose in a chic bobbed style while she appeared to have opted for natural-looking make-up.

"I said, 'What does it mean? Can you translate it?' And the doctor said, 'As I suspected, you have a brain tumour'."

A police spokesperson told The Sun: "Police were called by London Ambulance Service at approximately 13:40hrs on Wednesday, 8 February to an address in Bramham Gardens, SW5.
