As reported by the Courier, Jess – who was a devoted mum-of-three – was finally cancer free after being diagnosed three times when she died suddenly on Sunday.

She was in hospital for a preventative treatment when she fell ill after a burst ovarian cyst caused an infection which doctors could not save her from.

She was in a coma for two days and died on Sunday evening, surrounded by loved ones.

Her devastated fiancé Conor Waddington said: “She was just amazing, absolutely amazing.”

"She was an inspiration to everyone and a brilliant mum.”
