TOLL ON MURDER ACCUSED'S EX

Earlier this year, it was revealed Mr Bailey's sister, Kay Reynolds, would scatter her dead brother's ashes in a place he loved in West Cork.

Ms Thomas also said she would've gone along with his sister to help scatter his ashes to say goodbye to the late UK journalist.

And while Ms Reynolds hasn't contacted her, she said: "She wants to keep it low key as possible.. but I would go and say goodbye."

Ms Thomas said Mr Bailey drank and took drugs to “block out the hell he was living” after being accused of the murder.

In January 2024, Mr Bailey collapsed and died from a suspected heart attack aged 66.
