Ex-EastEnders star Brooke Kinsella says she is devastated after her younger brother was killed on Sunday.

Ben Kinsella, 16, died at the Whittington Hospital from stab wounds in the early hours of yesterday morning.

It is thought he had been at a party at the Shillibeers pub when a row broke out between several youths.

He made a desperate phone call begging for help from a friend minutes before he was knifed to death in the street.

Yesterday, Brooke, 24, who played Kelly Taylor in the soap until 2004, joined mourners at the scene.

Her boyfriend Ray Panthaki, 29, who played Ronny Ferreira in the BBC show, was by her side.

Two youths have been arrested and released on bail.
