Jasmine Burkitt, the star of BBC Three reality series Small Teen Bigger World, has died aged 28.

The heartbreaking news was confirmed by her fiancé Lewis Burke, although a cause of death has not yet been confirmed.

Burke said: "She is the most incredible human that ever walked this planet, she is the strongest, funniest, most kindest and purely decent person I've ever known.

"I am truly devastated. She changed my life forever and I'll never be the same."

Jasmine, who was known as Jazz, appeared in the series Small Teen Bigger World in 2011.

She appeared on the four-part documentary series alongside her mum Bev, who died in 2014.

Jasmine aimed to prove that despite being 3ft 11ins, she was just like any other teen.

In her final Instagram post shared in February, she wrote: “Sometimes when I’m sad I do my makeup even if I’m not going out, like escaping depression and using your face as a colouring book.

“Today is alien vibes as I’m feeling very alienated from life after a night of horrific nightmares… Beam me up bitches, my body is ready.”
