Non-league football clubs have paid their respects following the death of The Only Way Is Essex star Jake Hall. The reality TV personality, 35, was found dead at a holiday villa in Majorca, Spain, after a tragic accident in which he crashed into a glass door.
Hall, who joined the television programme while dating Chloe Lewis, was discovered in a pool of blood with head injuries, caused by shards of glass. It’s reported that he had been out celebrating and chose to continue the festivities at his rented property.
The fashion designer played for teams such as Grays Athletic and Boston United during his football career, and both have expressed their condolences following the heartbreaking news.

“Grays Athletic are deeply saddened to receive the news that former player Jake Hall has tragically died while on holiday in Majorca,” said Hall’s former team. “The club would like to send its heartfelt condolences to Jake’s family and friends at this very difficult time. RIP Jake.”
“RIP Jake…,” posted Boston United. “You were only with us a short time, but your presence shone the spotlight on the club. We will always remember that goal against Tamworth. Our thoughts go out to your family and friends.”
Following the incident, four men and two women who were also staying at the address are believed to have been questioned by police. Police were called to the address in Santa Margalida at 7:30am local time, and an autopsy is expected, while the ongoing investigation is being carried out by the Civil Guard.
A police source revealed: “We are focusing on the theory the victim died in a tragic accident after hitting his head against the glass door but it is still too early to say definitely what happened.”
Hall leaves behind a daughter following his tragic death. The reality star became a father with Misse Beqiri in November 2017, though their relationship ended shortly after they got engaged in May 2018.
Misse’s representatives issued a statement, saying: “At this time, Misse’s focus is on supporting and protecting their child as they come to terms with this devastating loss. The family are asking for privacy, compassion and respect while they grieve privately.”
