Days later, Frankie, who played Jess Holt in the iconic soap Hollyoaks, was involved in a devastating car crash on the M66, with her two sons and four-year-old nephew, Tobias, also in the car at the time.
While Rocky is understood to have only suffered minor injuries, Tommy and Tobias were reportedly put into induced comas.
Two days after the accident, the pregnant actress tragically died in hospital on May 15.
