The daughter of Commons Deputy Speaker Lindsay Hoyle was found hanged at her home, an inquest has heard.

Natalie Lewis-Hoyle, 28, died at her home in Heybridge, Essex, on December 15.

An inquest into her death was opened and adjourned in Chelmsford on Friday.

Essex Coroner Caroline Beasley-Murray said Miss Lewis-Hoyle was found hanging in a bedroom by her mother, Miriam Lewis.

She said a post-mortem examination gave the medical cause of death as compression of the neck consistent with hanging.

Miss Lewis-Hoyle's father, who is MP for Chorley, said last week that he was truly devastated'' by the death of his daughter.

Her mother, who is a Maldon district councillor, urged anyone with information about her sudden death to get in touch with Essex Police
