A post-mortem examination commenced on Saturday, 20 July. Officers await the outcome of toxicology tests. "Detectives responsible for policing Wandsworth are investigating the incident as an 'unexpected death'.

" Harry, who hails from Essex, was just 20 when he took part in Hunted in 2019. The show follows 14 civilians, who go on the run for nearly a month while eluding a team of super sleuths and trackers. Harry was caught on day 24 in Birmingham city centre, while Frank was apprehended just moments before the dramatic helicopter extraction finale ,which would have seen him bag the £100,000 prize.
The pair appeared on the show just weeks after the death of their mother. Their father, Roy, died when Frank was 18 and Harry just 15. In a heartbreaking moment on the show, Harry and Frank revealed their mother had been diagnosed with early on-set Alzheimer's, and it caused her death just three years later.
However, their tragedy was made worse by the fact their father died only a few years before, meaning the pair were orphans when they made their TV debut. Follow Mirror Celebs on TikTok , Snapchat , Instagram , Twitter , Facebook , YouTube and Threads.
