Liverpool fan died in tanning salon hours before Champions League final

A Liverpool FC fan who died in a tanning salon has been described as "the most generous person you could ever meet" by her husband.

Piata Tauwhare headed to Lextan near her home in Swansea on Saturday, May 28, for an 11-minute tan but died shortly after her session. The 30-year-old is believed to have had a cardiac arrest minutes after getting out of the tanning bed with her mum-in-law going to look for her after not hearing from her for an hour.

Piata's husband Ifan Jones told the ECHO his mum went to the salon thinking she might have left her phone there without realising but when she was shown to the room the mental health support worker was using, she found her daughter-in-law dead on the floor.
