Alongside a picture of herself with Harry, Naomi wrote: “It’s taken me a few days to get my head around this to digest the fact my BEAUTIFUL GODSON HARRY BRANT HAS GONE TO THE SPIRITUAL WORLD ..

“MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCES TO STEPHANIE , PETER ,DYLAN , PETE , AND LILY , And EXTENDED FAMILY REST WITH THE HIGHEST (sic)”
Harry’s passing was confirmed this month by his family.
They said in a statement: "We will forever be saddened that his life was cut short by this devastating disease.
"He achieved a lot in his 24 years, but we will never get the chance to see how much more Harry could have done.
"Harry was not just our son.
"He was also a wonderful brother, loving grandson, favourite uncle and a caring friend.
"He was a creative, loving and powerful soul that brought light into so many people’s hearts.
"He was truly a beautiful person inside and out."
Harry appeared in Balmain and Italian Vogue campaigns and had previously released a unisex MAC makeup line.
He was also a teenage columnist for Interview magazine, which was owned by Peter.
