The 44-year-old was found dead in a hotel room in February 2024.

He had left a note criticising the way he was treated by bosses on the BBC show, saying: “This all really started when I lost my job on Strictly.”

The note went on: “The way they treated me destroyed me... it started me on the road I am still on.”

Emmerdale star Lisa Riley, who was paired with Robin on the 2012 series of the show, told his inquest in a statement: “To say we hit it off was an understatement. We were literally joined at the hip.
