The mum of a toddler who died in Wythenshawe at the weekend has paid tribute to her.

The 22-month-old, who's now been named as Ella-Rose Clover, was found with unexplained injuries at a house on Somerton Avenue on Sunday.

She was taken to hospital but despite the best efforts of medics she sadly died.

Detectives have launched an investigation into her death and a man, aged 28, and a 34-year-old woman remain in custody on suspicion of murder.

Paying tribute to her, Ella-Rose’s mum, Pagan Clover said: “Mine, my family and friend’s world has been torn apart by the loss of our beautiful Ella-Rose.

“Ella was the funniest, cheekiest and most lovable little girl and none of our lives will ever be the same again.

“We are broken beyond words and would ask that our privacy is respected at this most difficult time and we are allowed to grieve in peace.”
