Aimee Spencer, a 27-year-old glamour model, had previously appeared on Geordie Shore
A drug dealer jailed after the death of Geordie Shore star Aimee Spencer had his lavish lifestyle funded by his grandfather - former TV executive Lord Gus Macdonald, it can be revealed.
The 27-year-old porn star, who had taken cocaine and ketamine, fell two storeys to her death at Daniel Lewis's drug-strewn flat in Brighton in July 2016.
She died in hospital a week later after her distraught parents made the harrowing decision to allow her life-support machine to be switched off.
Lewis, 30, was arrested but never charged in connection with her death.
He received a suspended sentence in November 2018 after he admitted drug offences, including possessing LSD and cocaine with intent to supply. But on January 16, three senior judges at in London ruled his punishment 'unduly glenient' - and jailed him for three years.
The former bodybuilder is the son of London-based Jean Macdonald, the daughter of Lord Macdonald of Tradeston, 78, who was formerly the managing director of Scottish Television (STV), a Labour peer and a transport minister.

It has now emerged that Lewis's lifestyle was supported by a trust fund from his grandfather, who retired from the House of Lords in April 2017.
It is not known exactly how much Lewis was given, however he enjoyed a party lifestyle - and was hosting an event at his flat on the night Miss Spencer died.
She was there with him and his girlfriend Helen Dawson at the event, which featured 'party platters' of class A drugs. Police eventually recovered £15,000 worth of drugs.
Lewis, whose treatment following Miss Spencer's death was supported by the trust fund, was also known to be selling mail order drugs to high-end clients.
Lord Macdonald was brought up in Scotland and worked in the Glasgow shipyards alongside Billy Connolly and Alex Ferguson while leading apprentices' strikes.

He then worked in the media before he was made a life peer by Labour in 1998 and held a series of positions, including transport minister and Cabinet Office minister.
Miss Spencer's mother, Jean, had previously claimed the soft sentence Lewis initially received last November was due to his wealthy family helping him in rehabilitation.
Mrs Spencer has searched for answers about how her daughter came to fall, naked, from the window ledge of the building three years ago.
Now, a new documentary about the police investigation into Miss Spencer's mysterious death will be presented by Katie Piper on ITV this Thursday.
Lewis is also featured in the documentary during a police station interview after the incident
The programme will feature interviews with detectives, bodycam footage from officers at the scene and footage of key developments during the probe.
It reveals Lewis had sent Miss Spencer a message saying: 'Get in, get your kit off, get Helen making balloons while I'll make a line under your nose as long as a yeti's leg.'
It also shows the moment police arrived at Lewis's flat and found him dressed in just boxer shorts. He said: 'I've used some drugs, I've used some cocaine and Diazepam.'
Meanwhile a new documentary about the police investigation into Miss Spencer's mysterious death will be presented by Katie Piper on ITV this Thursday.

The programme will feature interviews with detectives, bodycam footage from officers at the scene and footage of key developments during the probe.
Miss Spencer fell from the kitchen window having consumed cocaine and ketamine.
Lewis was charged with eight counts of drug possession with intent to supply – but no charges were brought against supplying Miss Spencer with the drugs in her body.
An inquest in May 2017 found Miss Spencer's death was caused by injuries in the fall - but the exact circumstances surrounding what happened remained unclear.

Miss Spencer, who was living in Basildon, Essex, had appeared on Babestation TV, worked at lap dancing club Spearmint Rhino and starred in several adult films.
Her father Richard, 69, told the Sun her death is still shrouded in mystery, saying: 'There are more questions than answers. We will never know what happened.'
Mrs Spencer added: 'She told me, 'I like sex so what's the difference? If I get money for it, fine'. She saw it as easy money. Aimee never hid anything she did.
'It wasn't necessarily something we condoned but we couldn't stop her. Aimee was a free spirit.' Mr Spencer added: 'People will judge her but we were proud of her.'

Miss Spencer was found naked lying on a patio below the first-floor window with serious head injuries and taken to Royal Sussex County Hospital but died on July 18.
The inquest heard that witnesses told police they heard a man scream but there were no signs of an argument or 'significant disturbance' at the party.
A toxicologist said the cocktail of drugs could have put her in a dream-like state, which might explain why she was in such dangerous position on a window ledge.
The court heard a statement from a neighbour who said he heard a single, male scream then saw a body falling from the open window.

Her food blog Gym Kitchen was described as a resource for tasty and healthy recipes to help her Instagram followers achieve fitness and body-building goals.
Katie Piper will present the documentary, The Death Of Aimee Spencer, on ITV this Thursday
Her career in the adult entertainment industry started as a dancer at the Spearmint Rhino Club in London before she appeared on a string of adult websites.
Miss Spencer's Geordie Shore appearance came when she was invited to a party at a villa occupied by the TV show's cast in Magaluf.
She joined Miss Pattison in bed before passing out while her friend slept in a bed with fellow reality star Jay Gardner.
Attempts have been made by MailOnline to contact Lord Macdonald for comment.

The...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
