James and his wife Jane tweeted an emotional tribute to their 'beautiful' daughter: “We have the most indescribably devastating news that our beautiful daughter Bethan suddenly passed away on Saturday evening. Our hearts are broken. She was the most wonderfully caring and kind daughter and sister to Rhys.”

Bethan, who lived in Cardiff and was studying at university, was diagnosed with Crohn's disease and had been unwell but her family had no idea that she had contracted the fatal condition.
