A young woman whose friends called her ‘the life of the party’ has died in what may have been a murder-suicide.

Horse riding enthusiast Gracie Spinks, 23, was found dead in a field near the Derbyshire village of Duckmanton on Friday shortly after 8am.

Later that morning the body of a 30-year-old man was discovered half a mile away on a nearby field.

Police believe the incidents are linked and are not looking for anyone else in connection with their deaths.

The shocking events have stunned locals and Gracie’s friends took to social media to share their fondest memories of her.

In a tribute on Facebook, Alicia Jordan posed: ‘Oh Gracie Spinks I don’t even know what to say. Heartbroken doesn’t even cut it.

‘You really were the life of the party, we made so many memories us four and I couldn’t be more grateful to know you.

‘Honestly sat here thinking of them is making me smile. This world is so so cruel and it’s really not fair.

‘Rest in peace Gracie you will be so missed. Thinking of your family and friends.’

Another friend, Abbey Griffin, set up a GoFundMe page to help Gracie’s family.

Abbey said: ‘She was a caring and loving individual and was always happy to help. She was also so so stubborn and she’d always stand up for what was right.

‘If you knew Gracie you’d also know she was horsey mad and had the most gorgeous horse called Paddy whom she loved dearly.

‘Although no amount of money could ever bring Gracie back, I ask that you please donate whatever you can to help her family at this moment.

‘We all love you so dearly Gracie, behave up there.’

Gracie, a six-foot blonde who was said to have also worked as a model, was reportedly being ‘bothered by a weird man who was totally obsessed with her’.

A friend told The Sun: ‘We are aware that she had a stalker but didn’t know who he was.

‘We heard she had taken out a restraining order against him because he was becoming quite a pest.

‘She’s a beautiful young woman, very popular, and he was obsessed with her and kept turning up at the stables. He was infatuated with her.’

Abbey said she would be organising a balloon release from the Markham Vale business park, where Gracie worked, on Monday, June 28 to allow her friends to say their goodbyes.

A spokesperson for Derbyshire Police said: ‘We appreciate that what has happened in Duckmanton will have shocked and upset many people in the community and officers will carry out extra patrols in the coming days.

‘We would urge you to stop and speak to an officer if you wish to raise any concerns.’
