Her family have released the following statement:
"Our gorgeous Mum has sadly been taken away from us in the most tragic of circumstances.
"Paula was beautiful inside and out; so kind, so loving and she was the person that was there for everyone. She was the mum of Jason, Jessica and Matthew and the proudest nanny to her first grandson.
"Paula was devoted to siblings Karen, Ian and Peter, to her large loving family and to her wonderful friends. She was a beautiful soul within her community with a smile to light up the world.
"Mum will be missed beyond words but the life, the love and the memories we shared together will live on forever.
"Please respect our privacy at this time."
Paula's husband, 60-year-old George Leather from Tinling Close in Prescot, is due back in court today (Friday 20 November) charged with her murder.
