The fiancé of a man who was found dead after two years of mental health problems has spoken for the first time of her family’s heartbreak, revealing her daughter, 10, goes out in the evenings to talk to her daddy’s star. Dad of two Darren McHugh, 39, was found in the family home in June this year.
His fiancé, Louise Tither, has paid tribute, saying he had 'begged for help'. She said: “Darren had threatened to kill himself and he’d begged for help, but he was sent home from hospital without any support. The day after, he was found dead.
“There is a star named in Darren’s memory and now our daughter goes outside to show him her new clothes or to tell him about her day. It brings me some comfort that he lives on through her.”
