Three months after her sudden passing, it was revealed that Britain’s Got Talent star Chantel Bellew had died. The 34-year-old dancer passed away in March.
When she was 28 years old, Chantel gained notoriety as a dancer when she auditioned for ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent in 2019. She performed her cheeky dance routines to hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly while on the show.
She made it to the quarterfinals after failing at her audition, but singer Colin Thackery won the show in the end. Chantel passed away shortly after being rushed to a hospital just weeks after her 34th birthday, it was revealed in March. Bolton Coroners’ Court inquest into her death concluded that she committed suicide.
On Saturday, The Manchester Evening News reported her death’s cause. According to their description of Chantel’s mother, Jill Dawson, who called her a “beautiful daughter” and “model student,”
According to the coroner, Chantel had been told that she had been having mental health issues for “quite some time.” The tap dancer’s assistant coroner, John Pollard, is quoted as saying that Genna Timewell and the tap dancer were “loving relationships.”
She reportedly overdosed on painkillers on March 17 and her final moments were also revealed during the hearing. The hearing was informed that Gemma assumed no one was home when she returned home at around 2 o’clock.
Gemma was reportedly “really worried” and that something “wasn’t right” when the inquest was held. She called her father-in-law, who claimed Chantel wasn’t with him.
She then texted Chantel, who responded, “I’m good, I’m grand.” Then Gemma suggested they spend the weekend in Wales to “get away” and “leave it all behind”
The inquest heard then that Gemma had heard a noise in the attic and that Chantel was “walking very unsteadily and looking disoriented” and “stumbling down the stairs” Gemma drove Chantel to the hospital after calling 999 and being told it would take 40 minutes. Tragically, she passed away on March 22.
