Leeds funnyman Danny Malin has marked the one-year anniversary of his fiancée's sudden and tragic death with a heartbreaking tribute.
The Rate My Takeaway star was unexpectedly made a single dad to the couple's three children when his "much-loved" partner Carrie Taylor collapsed in his arms last year.
Carrie, 40, said she was feeling unwell and wanted to go upstairs, but she had a heart attack as Danny helped her to the bedroom and died in hospital the next day.

Exactly one year to the day later, Danny posted a photo on Twitter of his three children Jacob, 17, Summer, 12, and George, 9, together with Carrie and himself.
He added the caption: "Today marks a year since you left gained your wings and joined others in heaven.
"It’s been so hard every moment of every day not seeing your smile hearing your laugh and touching your skin.
"Me and the kids miss you dearly and do so more every day."
Danny has previously discussed how Carrie's sudden death left a "gap that will never be filled".
He said she was always the "life and soul of the party" and her infectious laugh had become a staple of his social media videos.
Describing the moment she collapsed into his arms, he recalled: "I went upstairs and as we got in the bedroom, she collapsed into my arms. The kids were there, so I got the kids out.
“She was just looking at me, she said that she loved me and the life just sort of drained from her face."
He said the success of Rate My Takeaway has been a blessing in disguise during an incredibly difficult year for him and his three children.
“It’s allowed me to spend more time with them, which is precious,” said Danny.
