Woman beaten to death days before giving birth - Telegraph.co.uk

"We can't begin to explain how we feel. Eystna was a wonderful and loving daughter who was looking forward to the birth of her first child. Sadly this will no longer be.

"We hope that everyone will understand the sadness in our hearts and let us mourn our sadness of the passing of our loved ones. We would also like to thank everyone for their support to our family at this very sad time."

Friends gathered to lay flowers at the scene of the attack in Howard Way, and told how excited Miss Blunnie had been about having a baby.

Chloe Hickman, 20, said: "It's a terrible and wicked thing to happen to such a lovely, bubbly girl.

"Eystna was such a popular and positive person and was due to be induced at the weekend.

"She was really looking forward to becoming a mum."

Sally Bugg, 57, from Harlow, added: "She was a bundle of joy and was so looking forward to being a mum.

"We saw her during the Jubilee and she was cuddling her baby bump and smiling from ear to ear.

"It is absolutely heart-breaking what has happened."

A 23 year-old man, believed to be Miss Blunnie's ex-boyfriend, Tony McLernon, has been arrested over the deaths and is being questioned by detectives.

A spokesman for Essex Police said: "Eystna was heavily pregnant at the time of her death. She was due to give birth to a baby girl in the next few days.

"As a result, the man is also being questioned in relation to the death of Eystna's unborn daughter."
