''Three years of pain': Olly Murs' heartbreaking tribute to Caroline Flack three years on from her tragic death

Olly Murs has received an outpouring of love and support after sharing an heartbreaking tribute to his friend Caroline Flack three years on from her tragic death. The Voice coach Olly, 38, posted a moving message on his Instagram with a gorgeous black and white photograph of the friends smiling together.

Olly and Caroline worked together on The X Factor's spin-off show, The Xtra Factor, before stepping up to present the main show together in 2015. Olly told how he misses his pal while saying today (Tuesday, February 15) is the "hardest day of the year" after "three years of pain" following her death.

Caroline, the popular host of Love Island, died by suicide on February 15, 2020 at the age of 40. Singer Olly, who shot to fame on the ITV talent show The X Factor in 2009, messaged: "Hardest day of the year 3 years of pain that never goes away but that smile and laughter I can still see and hear everyday! Miss ya Caz."
