The sister of One Direction singer Louis Tomlinson, Felicite Tomlinson, overdosed on a “perfect storm” drugs, including oxycodone, Xanax, and cocaine, it was reported.
The 18-year-old was found dead at her flat in Earl’s Court, located in west London, in March 2019.
Tomlinson’s cause of death was listed as misadventure.
Officials said that she had started taking drugs following the death of her mother, Johannah Deakin, who died of leukemia in 2016.
Tomlinson’s friend, Zainab Mohammed, found her dead after the two had taken cocaine the night before.
The coroner said of Mohammed: “You … say that both you and Fizz did lines of cocaine on the night of 12 March. You went to bed and saw Félicité do more lines, but you don’t know how many she did and then you fell asleep. You also said you had gone with her to buy cocaine on the night.”
Mohammed said that she wasn’t aware of any drugs other than cocaine being done on that night.
Later, toxicologist Dr. Susan Paterson said “toxic” levels of oxycodone and Xanax, an anti-anxiety drug, were found in her system.
Mark Tomlinson, her father, said that Felicite was a “much-loved daughter and sister.”
He continued: “Felicite had huge hopes and aspirations for her future, a lot of which were beginning to come to fruition at her untimely passing. She is missed by all who knew and loved her,” The Guardian reported.
Her sister, Phoebe, also said in a tribute: “You were my best friend, sister, motivator and person that could make me laugh until I cried.”
