Mick Norcross beams with his son Kirk in heartbreaking last picture before death

Mick Norcross looks happy in the final picture posted of him before his tragic death.

The former TOWIE star died at the age of 57 on Thursday, but the cause of death is yet to be confirmed.

On January 4, just weeks before he died, Mick's son Kirk, who he starred in TOWIE with, shared a picture of him on his Facebook page.

The father and son pair posed together sitting on a sofa and Mick had a big grin on his face while Kirk snapped the photo.

"Me and the big man," Kirk captioned the photo, alongside a love heart emoji.

Mick joined the cast of TOWIE in the early series with his son Kirk.

He was a big part of the show as the owner of Sugar Hut.

The businessman quit TOWIE in 2013 and shared his concerns that the show was damaging the Sugar Hut brand as so many arguments had been filmed there.
