Sarah first met Blake during a spell in rehab in 2009, while he continued his on-off relationship with Amy into 2010.

Both children were later adopted and the couple reportedly split in 2018.

Sarah, who was also said to have struggled with addiction, was discovered after police were called following a concern-for-safety report.

In 2011, Sarah revealed visiting Blake at HMP Leeds shortly after Amy's death, where he was serving a jail sentence for burgling a business to fund his addiction.

She said: 'He is devastated and shattered. He just can't take it in that she's dead and he'll never see her again.

'Blake rang me on Saturday after the prison authorities told him she'd died. I just couldn't console him. He was in total shock. Blake is the father of our son. But I saw him and Amy together and I know they were really in love and they were soulmates.

'She always loved him and he always loved her - but it was just never going to work. Basically they couldn't live with each other and they could not live without each other.
