Corinne's husband 'died from cocaine'
Corinne Bailey Rae has told friends that her husband died from a cocaine overdose.

Jason Rae was found dead at a flat in Leeds last weekend.

An inquest has heard that the fatality was caused by a drug overdose, which led to speculation that Jason had been addicted to heroin.

However, Corinne has insisted that her husband did not have a drug habit. She believes that Jason, who had been on a night out with friends, died following a one-off cocaine binge which triggered a heart attack.

One pal told the Sunday Mirror: "Corinne is sure Jason had been living a clean life. He did not have a drug habit."
