AN INQUEST heard a Dorset soldier, who was a "nervous wreck" from work pressure, hanged herself soon after finding out on Facebook that her ex-boyfriend had another partner.

Anne-Marie Ellement, 30, was a Military Policewoman based at Bulford who died on October 9 last year, Salisbury Coroner’s Court heard this morning.

She grew up in Christchurch and Muscliff in Bournemouth before fulfilling her ambition of joining the army in 2006.

Coroner Ian Singleton said he believed the end of the relationship was "the final straw" and ruled she took her own life.
