Felicite Tomlinson's sisters pay tribute to the aspiring fashion designer who died last week aged 18.
"You were my best friend, sister, motivator and person that could make me laugh until I cried."

That was the message from Phoebe Tomlinson, whose older sister Felicite was found dead last week at the age of 18.

Felicite, the sister of One Direction singer Louis Tomlinson, was an aspiring fashion designer who had 1.3 million followers on Instagram.

Felicite and Louis lost their mum Johannah to leukaemia in 2016.

Daisy and Phoebe Tomlinson, who are 14 and twins, paid tribute to their sister on Instagram.

Louis released a song earlier this month which was inspired by the grief he felt over his mum's death. It includes the lyrics: "I'll be living one life for the two of us."

"It was something I needed to get off my chest," the 27-year-old told Radio 1 Newsbeat at the time.

"I used to lean on my mum for a lot of things - anytime I needed advice on something she would be the first call I made."

The Doncaster native said playing the song to his sisters for the first time was "tough" because he "didn't want them to get caught up in the sadness".

But, he said, "as their big brother if I can sing those words it'll hopefully help them too".
