Former Sky News correspondent James Forlong has died.

The 44 year old was discovered just after 2.30am on Saturday at Hove in East Sussex.

On Monday, a Sussex Police spokesman said: “We can confirm that a 44-year-old man from Hove was found dead at his address in the early hours of Saturday morning.”

He said the circumstances were not thought to be suspicious and a post-mortem was due to be carried out on Tuesday.

“Everyone here sends their deepest sympathies to James’s wife and children.”
