Singer James Morrison's partner, Gill Catchpole, has been found dead at home, according to reports.
It is understood that Gill, 45, was found dead at the family home she shared with 39-year-old crooner James in Gloucestershire on Friday, January 5.
A source close to the family confirmed that there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding her the death.
