Ex-Man City ace Jerome Boateng’s model ex-girlfriend has been found dead a week after the couple broke up.

Kasia Lenhardt, 25, was discovered by police in a Berlin apartment on Tuesday. Her death is not being treated as suspicious.

Born in Poland, Ms Lenhardt became famous in 2012 when she came in fourth in Heidi Klum's fronted “Germany’s Next Top Model”. She leaves behind a son.

She and Boateng had dated for a year before the Bayern Munich defender confirmed their break-up in an Instagram post on February 2.

He said: “As is known from the media, I ended the relationship with Kasia Lenhardt.

“We will go our separate ways from now on. That is regrettable, but for my family and for me it is the only right one.

“I had to take this step and draw a line. I apologise to everyone I’ve hurt especially with my ex-girlfriend Rebecca and our children.

“I am disappointed in myself too. A man has to take responsibility and act in the interests of his family and I'm doing it now.

“I wish Kasia all the best. Jerome Boateng.”

News of Kasia’s death was confirmed by friend and fellow model Sara Kulka, who uploaded a photo of the pair on Instagram.

Alongside it, she wrote: “Rest in peace. You wonderful person, I miss you and would have loved to say goodbye.

“I hope you find your peace now and I hope the truth comes out now, I know how much you wished it would.

“I will never forget you, I don’t know anyone who could laugh like you. I send a lot of strength to the family.”

A Berlin police spokesman told Bild: “Yesterday at around 8.30 p.m. there was a police operation in Charlottenburg on suspicion of suicide.

“A lifeless person was found in the home. There are no indications of third-party involvement.”
