X Factor star’s fiance suffered head injury after falling from hotel window just weeks before wedding, inquest hears
The fiance of X Factor star Jaymi Hensley suffered a head injury after falling from a hotel window just weeks before his wedding, an inquest heard.
Olly Marmon, 33, plunged from the third floor of the Hind Hotel in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, last month.
Union J star Jaymi, 34, was arrested on suspicion of murder but released with no further action.
An inquest heard today how provisional cause of death was given as “head injuries pending further tests”.
The court was also told Olly’s body has been released to his heartbroken family.
Hassan Shah, assistant coroner for Northamptonshire, adjourned the inquest until March 12.
Jaymi, who had a UK top ten album after coming fourth on X Factor in 2012, and Olly had been due to get married this month.
The horror unfolded after emergency crews were scrambled to the hotel when stylist Olly fell through a small open window.
Sadly he couldn’t be saved and was declared dead at the scene.
Police confirmed they were no longer treating the case as murder following the results of a forensic post-mortem.
Jamyi had tragically been posting about their wedding before the horror.
He shared a photo last September of himself kissing Olly’s cheek, writing: “14 years together and 1 year until “I do”.
“I love you irrevocably and so excited that in 365 days we will finally be Mr&Mr.”
Olly had also shared a post three weeks before his death, saying: “Best week with my man and nine weeks and counting until we say I do!”
The stylist’s heartbroken family paid tribute to Olly, describing him as “beautiful both inside and out”.
His mum Julie added: “Words cannot express the devastation and heartbreak I feel over the loss of my beautiful youngest son Oliver, Olly to his friends.
“I can’t believe I am having to write this. No mother should have to do this.
“The relationship I had with Oliver was so special, he was my best friend.
“We spoke every single day. He called me mummy, he used to call me his guardian angel.
“Oliver was so caring, loving, quiet and always put others before himself.
“He was a very talented hairdresser, and it was a passion he took seriously.”
While his dad Leigh Marmon said Olly was a “kind-hearted, gentle soul” who squeezed so much into his short life.
He added: “My darling Oliver, I cannot believe that I am writing this. I would give my life to have saved yours.
“I am struggling with every emotion you can think of, grief, anger, guilt, the list goes on.
“I know that you knew how much you were loved. I was so proud of you and everything you achieved.”
