Summary
- Fiancé fell from hotel balcony hours before baby's first death anniversary.
- Couple's holiday aimed to avoid painful anniversary at home.

A British mother is reeling from the loss of her fiancé, Robert Davidson, who died by suicide from a sixth-floor hotel balcony in Torremolinos, Spain. The tragedy unfolded late last Tuesday, mere hours before the first anniversary of their infant daughter Hollie's death from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
The family had chosen to holiday in Spain, hoping to avoid the painful memories associated with February 4th, the date they lost their seven-week-old daughter Hollie a year prior. Robert, aged 37, was with Daniella Robb, 27, and her two children when he returned to their hotel room.
