“My thoughts are with her family and loved-ones.”
Lisa first came to prominence in the nineties due to her relationship with Michael Flatley. The couple ended up parting ways in 2006.
The model found love again with solicitor Gerald, they had an on-again-off-again relationship for a decade. However, they officially parted ways in 2016.
“I don’t have any bad feelings about any of my relationships,” she told VIP Magazine in 2016.
“They were important times in my life, great experiences and I don’t do regrets. I believe everything happens for a reason and people are brought together for a reason. I don’t look back negatively on any of my boyfriends. To be honest, I’m a very private person and I’m always in good form. I don’t do negativity.”
Rest in peace, Lisa.
