A key worker described as an "excellent mum" died suddenly after accidentally overdosing on medication, an inquest has heard. Katie Irene Wasley died on August 26, 2021, after being found unresponsive in bed by her partner Sam Bradley Richards.
An inquest held at Pontypridd Coroners' Court on Friday heard Ms Wasley had been to a party at her friend's house the previous night and Mr Richards picked her and their daughter up during the early hours of the morning before returning to their Rhondda home.
The couple met in 2010 when Ms Wasley was working as a nurse in Llwynypia Hospital and they had been in a relationship ever since. In a statement provided to the coroner Mr Richards said: "Our relationship was loving and we had many holidays away and we went onto have a daughter."
