PARTNER'S DEMAND AFTER MUM DIES IN DEVON AIRFIELD

- By LISA LETCHER, MARTIN FRICKER & ALEX DRISCOLL

Call for answers after skydive ends in tragedy

THE partner of a South Hams woman killed in a skydiving incident in Devon has demanded answers over her death amid heartbreaking tributes to her.

Belinda Taylor and her instructor died instantly after they fell 15,000ft to the ground at an airfield on Friday.

Belinda’s partner, Scott Armstrong, wrote on social media on Sunday: “I want answers.”

Mr Armstrong had bought the tandem jump as a thank you present for his “adrenaline junkie” girlfriend, who was a mother of four from Totnes.

He told The Mirror: “Belinda was my absolute world. She was so kind and giving and would do anything for anyone.

“My nine-year-old son recently came to live with us and she welcomed him with open arms and was brilliant.

“As a thank you present I decided to buy her the tandem skydive. She was absolutely buzzing about it.

miss her so much. I’m so lost without her. She meant the world to all of us and we'll never forget her.
