Overview
- Paul Flack was found unresponsive at his Sandringham Road home in Norwich on June 21 and was taken to the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital, where he later died.
- Norfolk Coroner’s Court opened a brief inquest on June 29 and area coroner Yvonne Blake adjourned the hearing to October 23 while further evidence is gathered.
- A provisional post‑mortem reported the cause of death as cardiac arrest due to hanging, but the coroner said further enquiries are required before final conclusions are reached.
- Mr Flack, born on June 18, 1971, was 55 and is survived by his partner and two children; his last public social media post was an August 2020 tribute to his late sister Caroline Flack.
- His death renews attention on the family’s long campaign over Caroline Flack’s 2020 suicide, their documentary work, and ongoing calls for changes to how vulnerable people are treated by the media, police and online platforms, with the October inquest the next major milestone to watch.
