Naomi Campbell’s former assistant has taken her own life recently:

The former personal assistant to supermodel NAOMI CAMPBELL has leapt off a bridge to her death. Celebrity stylist and personal shopper Jade Bien-Aimee Sutherland was found dead under London’s Albert Bridge on the shore of the Thames river near her home in Battersea, South London.

The 28-year-old was seen sobbing on the streets of Los Angeles last year (07) after a fight with Campbell caused her to quit her job as the catwalk model’s assistant. Caribbean-born Sutherland – who was born a boy but underwent a sex-change – was said to have been devastated after the death from pneumonia of her “soulmate” Andrew Richardson, 24, who died just ten days before her suicide. In an email to friends she wrote: “He’s now gone, I’m all alone, my heart is empty, my life is empty. I don’t think life’s worth living after losing a close one.”
