James was an incredibly loved, warm- hearted and amazing person.

Their family are heartbroken at the loss of their son, brother and uncle. They are so proud of the wonderful things James achieved in their life and career.

We will not be releasing any further details.

We please ask that James’s family are given the time and privacy they now need to process and grieve.”
