In a tribute to her daughter, Lynn Haydock said: “I am totally devastated, such a big part of my life has gone.

“She was so loved by me and her brother, Craig.

“She was a devoted mother to Leo, who is just 18 months old.

“We just do not know what else to say. We just ask that we be left alone to grieve.”
