Tributes pour in for Dominique Worrall M20 murder victim

The boyfriend of a mother-of-two whose body was struck by unsuspecting vehicles as it lay in the middle of a motorway during rush hour said he is 'in mourning' and struggling to come to terms with her tragic death.

Dominique Worrall, 32, was found dead by horrified drivers on the London-bound carriageway on the M20 near Ashford, Kent, on Tuesday night.

Her boyfriend Terry Dunne told The Sun: 'I'm just in mourning. It's tragic what happened to her and difficult to come to terms with.' 

It is understood a man, who has not been named, was arrested on Thursday before being released on bail by police.

The ex-waitress, described as 'a wonderful person' with 'an infectious giggle', moved to Camber Sands caravan park in East Sussex with her two daughter, aged ten and three, and new partner in November.

Grieving friend Martin Collins, 31, said: 'She was such a lovely, bright, bubbly, fun-loving girl.' 

One friend, who did not want to be named, said today: 'She loved her kids, we used to do days out with her and them and it was wonderful.

She was all over them and such an attentive, brilliant mum.

'I have had people ringing me up all day who had only met her a few times saying she was so beautiful and such a wonderful person.'

She added one of the things people recognised the most was her 'infectious giggle'.

Dominique was sporty as well and liked a challenge. She was doing boxing and planned to do a tournament.'

'To be honest she was just a brilliant friend, if I had any problems she would comfort me and help me out.

'She would go out of her way to help people, she was so full of life, I will miss her so much

A number of tributes to Dominique have also appeared on social media.

Martin Collins wrote: 'Heartbreaking. Sleep tight and Fly high. I’ll miss your bubbly fun personality and I’m devastated I’ll never hear your laugh again. God bless you Dominique Worrall. Rest in Paradise.'

Jai Horan said: 'RIP Dominic Worrall I'm absolutely shocked & devastated over what's happened.' 

Her death is being treated as unexplained by police who are yet to rule out murder.  

The road was closed between junctions 9 and 10 for nearly 24 hours while the scene was investigated.

A spokesman for the force said inquiries are continuing.

Ms Worrall's body was found by horrified drivers on the London-bound carriageway of the M20 near Ashford, Kent around 6pm on Tuesday evening. 

Detectives arrested a man, reported to be the unnamed woman's partner, on suspicion of murder when he came forward following a police appeal. He has since been released on bail. 

According to reports, police were scouring a holiday park in Kent for evidence on Tuesday night. 

It is thought that the woman had moved there from Ashford with her two children and new partner in November. 

Officers were also said to be investigating whether she was killed at the holiday camp on the Kent coast before her body was driven to the M20 and dumped.

It is understood the woman's remains had been struck several times by passing cars and lorries, whose drivers were unaware of what was in the busy road.

It is unclear whether she was killed on the motorway or was already dead when the cars ran over her body.
