Daisy's family issued a statement yesterday paying tribute to their 'beautiful' daughter.

Daisy’s family said: “Our beautiful daughter was the centre of our world and we can’t believe she’s gone. She will be so missed by everyone that knew her.

"She was a such a happy little girl who lit up our lives and made the world brighter.”

The family has asked for privacy at this difficult time.
