Edinburgh mum devastated after sudden loss of daughter who died unexpectedly

An Edinburgh mum has been left devastated after the sudden loss of her daughter who had a "heart of gold" and was "beautiful inside and out."

Tragic 31-year-old Chloe Haworth suddenly passed away leaving her 13-year-old son Jayson, five brothers and her devastated mum Barbara Haworth.

The mum-of-one grew up with her five brothers in Granton and her mum described her as a "kind soul" who had a "unique personality" and was "full of beans."

The incident was completely unexpected and the family are now struggling to cover the funeral costs and are heartbroken at the thought of not being able to give Chloe the send off she deserves.

The mum told Edinburgh Live : "My beautiful baby girl passed away with no insurance and we are trying to raise money for her funeral, so that her little boy has somewhere to visit when he's older.

"Chloe was beautiful inside and out and had a heart of gold and would help anyone who needed it.

"She was a kind soul and brought sunshine to everyone's lives.

"Her full name is Chloe Octavia Haworth, they told me she was going to be a boy from the scan, but she turned out a girl and weighed 10lb 1.

"She was born 21/01/1991 and has a little boy called Jayson who was born 27/02/2009 on his uncles birthday, her brother Macauley was born 27/02/1994.

"We named her after the Barbadian midwife who delivered her."

Barbara continued: "Chloe would do the shopping for people with Covid.

"She was so loved that people have left tributes for her outside her flat and her neighbour lights candles every night as she said her light was too bright to be left to go out."

The 31-year-old was known for how kind and helpful she was in the community.

Her mum added: "She helped a friend last Christmas who's oven broke, it was just him and his son so she cooked their dinner for them.

"She helped anyone who needed it and had a unique personality. You always heard her before you saw her - always full of beans."

"She died suddenly and was found on her bedroom floor wrapped in her blanket.

"Chloe has one son called Jayson and five brothers. Two are in college, one is about to start college, one lives with his girlfriend who works for the post office and one is in between jobs."

All of Chloe's siblings are all heartbroken over the loss of their sister.
