Two people have been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter after a woman died following a “cosmetic procedure”. Alice Webb, 33, was rushed to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital on Monday and died in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

She became unwell following a “suspected cosmetic procedure”, Gloucestershire Police said. The two people arrested have been released on police bail. The woman’s family is being supported by specially trained officers, the force added.

A spokesperson said: “Police had been called by the ambulance service at around 11.35pm. An investigation, led by the Major Crime Investigation Team, is ongoing.”

The Mirror reports how Alice’s friend Abi Irwin described the young mum as a "beautiful person inside and out." She said: "Alice passed away on Monday evening after having a BBL treatment which has gone wrong. [She] had the biggest heart, her family was her world - it is a difficult and heartbreaking time for them all."

Alice’s partner Dane Knight posted online: “Want to say a heartfelt thank you..including [for] all of the kind messages sent to my children. Please, please have these five girls’ feelings at heart here.”
