Channel 4 star Harry Savage’s tragic last post enjoying sunny holiday in Ibiza just weeks before he was found dead
CHANNEL 4 star Harry Savage posted a tragic last post of himself enjoying sunny Ibiza just weeks before he was found dead.
The star’s life was tragically cut short when his body was found at a home in Putney, London, on July 19.
The star of the reality show The Hunted posted a photo of himself looking relaxed on the Spanish Island.
The 26-year-old from Essex is seen smiling at the camera as he stands in front of the sea on May 30.
Harry simply captioned the social media post with “Ibiza, it’s been a minute.”
His Instagram page is full of pictures of the reality star on his travels, including going skiing in Val Thorens, France, flying off to Toronto, Canada, and going island hopping in Greece.
A man, aged in their 30s, was arrested at the scene and has been bailed pending further enquiries, Met Police say.
Officers are awaiting the findings of a post-mortem which began on July 20.
Detectives from Wandsworth are investigating the incident as an “unexpected death”.
Officers are in contact with the man’s family and will be supporting them as enquiries continues.
Tributes have already been paid to Harry on social media.
One person posted: “What a sad day. RIP Harry Savage. One of the most beautiful souls on this earth. Rest well sweet angel.”
Another person posted: “I am lost for words. Such a beautiful soul… one of the nicest guys I’ve ever had the privilege to know.”
Harry previously appeared on Channel 4‘s show The Hunted in 2019.
Harry was aged 20 at the time and was a drama student.
His brother Frank was a star contestant in the 2019 finale of Hunted – in which 14 ordinary people have to go on the run for nearly a month while eluding a team of expert sleuths and trackers.
Earlier this year, Frank won in a bitter court fight against his millionaire life coach uncle over a £1m family farm and campsite.
Frank, 28, the last contestant to survive in the 2019 series Hunted, had been locked in the inheritance row.
The tragic death of Harry and Frank's mum
Frank and Harry Savage revealed their family heartbreak on Channel 4’s show The Hunted.
Harry broke down in tears as pent-up emotions surrounding his mum’s death just four months before the programme aired in 2019.
Harry said: “Mum only died in the last four months, but even dad was only five years ago, so it’s all still quite fresh.”
Revealing what happened to their parents, Frank confessed: “Mum was diagnosed with dementia, she was young, and within three years it killed her.
“My dad was more of a shock. He was fit and healthy.
“They found him at home dead of a heart attack at 55.”
And the tear-jerking footage continued as Frank gave his brother some heartfelt words of advice: “You ain’t gotta be tough all the time. It’s alright to let it out now and again.”
Frank’s mother had died weeks before the show was recorded, while his father had died years before.
Backed by his brother and other siblings, Frank has been fighting his millionaire uncle over the family inheritance – Pleasant Rise Farm, in Sussex.
Ownership of the farm is now shared between Frank, his three siblings, and their 76-year-old uncle Ray Savage.
The farm has been in the Savage family for three generations and is home to a popular campsite.
Ray – a former police detective and life coach – wanted the prime 76-acre site close to the Sussex coast sold to the highest bidder in the wake of his split from wife Vanessa in 2015.
But Frank sued him, adamant that the farm should stay in the family.
