BBC reality star dies aged 28 as fans pay tribute to 'incredible human'

A former star of a BBC reality show has sadly died at the age of 28. Jasmine Burkitt's heartbroken fiance confirmed the tragic news.

Jasmine, known as Jazz, appeared in BBC Three's Small Teen Bigger World when it was screened 10 years ago. The The 3ft 11ins star appeared on the documentary alongside her mum Bev, who passed away in 2014, in a bid to shine a spotlight on her life and show people that she was just like any other teenager, despite being born with dwarfism, as writes the Mirror.

Breaking the sad news of Jasmine's death on Monday, Lewis Burke said: "She is the most incredible human that ever walked this planet, she is the strongest, funniest, most kindest and purely decent person I've ever known. "I am truly devastated. She changed my life forever and I'll never be the same."
