Male model Tom Nicon was found dead in a Milan courtyard a day before men’s fashion week was set to kick off.
It was originally believed that Tom may have fallen out of his window, but now investigators are treating it as a suicide.
A source close to the investigation says: “We have spoken to the friends he was staying with and they have told us that he had recently broken up with his girlfriend and was depressed.”
Before his tragic death, Nicon went to a fitting for Donatella Versace.
She went over the last time she saw him, saying: “He was very normal. Only in the morning was he closed off in a strange silence. I wonder if this was a sign that, as a woman and mother, I could have caught?”
Sad.
Our thoughts are with Tom’s friends and family during this difficult time.
