Quotes & moments
Missé was unknowingly in Mallorca — the same location as Jake — the night he died, having been stranded there after losing her passport.
Jake Hall was 35 years old when he died, with his whole life ahead of him according to Missé.
Missé's brother was shot in broad daylight in London; the perpetrator flew from Sweden specifically to carry out the murder.
Missé began modelling professionally at nearly 19, considered older than the industry norm of starting around 14.
Missé's most impactful conversation was with her mother, who told her to stop blaming herself and prioritise her own wellbeing so she could function for her daughter.
Missé believes appearing on The Real Housewives of Cheshire was a factor that contributed to the breakdown of her marriage to Anders Lindegaard.
Missé chose to grieve openly in front of her daughter River rather than pretend to be strong. Crying together, talking about Jake, singing his favourite songs — she believes burying grief is the most dangerous thing you can do, because she did it once before with her brother.
Missé doesn't just grieve Jake Hall's death — she's haunted by the question of whether a single phone call could have changed everything. Knowing she was in the same city that night makes the silence unbearable.
Missé says the love between Jake Hall and their daughter River was 'insanity' — a word she uses almost with awe. Whatever friction existed between her and Jake, it dissolved the moment he was with River. That bond is what makes the loss most devastating.
Hours before Jake Hall died, he posted 'Remember the good things' on Instagram. Missé believes he wanted to be remembered for his love, his creativity, and how hard he fought the internal voice that tormented him.
It took Missé Beqiri 38 years to connect her lifelong pattern of seeking male validation to a childhood where her father never met her emotional needs. Every relationship she chased was the little girl trying to get the hug she never received.
Behind every glamorous shoot, models learn to numb their pain and perform joy on demand. Missé describes arriving to set after the worst morning of her life and simply switching on — a skill that costs you something deep inside.
Missé's brother was shot dead in broad daylight in London while his wife and children were with him. The perpetrator had flown from Sweden after planning the killing for 6 months. He is now serving a life sentence.
Jake Hall was one of the most intelligent people Missé had ever known, but his frustration at being unable to articulate his ideas became a defining — and ultimately tragic — struggle. He had so many ideas they got too loud inside his head.
Both Missé and Paul had been furious at the people they lost. Missé explains that the anger isn't resentment — it's love that has no outlet. When someone is gone, the love doesn't disappear, it just has nowhere to go.
Before Instagram, before DMs, a footballer saw Missé in a magazine and tracked her down on Facebook with a single opening line: 'I'm going to end up marrying you.' He then referenced it in his wedding speech — because he did.
Missé was approached by agents while working a weekend job in a Copenhagen clothing store. Within months she was shooting in Milan, South Africa, and New York. The mole that some told her to remove became her signature.
Missé joined The Real Housewives of Cheshire hoping it would bring her and Anders closer during a time when she felt like a single mother. Instead, the show accelerated the unravelling of their marriage — something she is admitting publicly for the first time.
Missé Beqiri was stranded in Mallorca after losing her passport — not knowing that Jake Hall was also there and dying that very night. She only found out when she woke to 10 missed calls the next morning, and her first thought was that something had happened to her daughter River.
