Award-winning trainer Angie Dowds from ITV series ‘The Biggest Loser’ has been found dead after apparently jumping to her death from the cliffs at Beachy Head.
Local police confirmed today that Angie Dowds, 42, was found dead on the beach near Eastbourne, East Sussex.
She had battled drink and drugs most of her life and had recently split from her partner Corrie Preece, who she was engaged to.
‘Biggest Loser’ presenter Davina McCall paid tribute via Twitter saying, “Rest in peace Angie Dowds. So so sad.”
Ms Dowds had won a Personal Trainer of the Year award in 2006.
A police spokesman said, “Just after 4.30pm on Sunday members of the public reported that a woman was seen to jump or fall from the top of cliffs at Beachy Head. Coastguards found the body of woman at the foot of the cliffs about an hour later.
“There are no suspicious circumstances and it is believed that the body may be that of a 42-year old woman from London.”

Often people say suicide (if thats wot it was) is a cowards way out

Well i disagree - everyone has their limit, not everyone can cope

And to leap from beachy head ... well to me it takes huge,huge courage to face that.

A lot of people manage to get their hands on the drug that knocks you out for an operation, take it and tumble.
