Noah's family denied access to his Instagram account after his death during inquest into his suicide

Summary

An inquest heard that Fiona Donohoe was prevented from accessing her son Noah's Instagram account after his death in June 2020 due to a memorialisation request sent to Meta. The memorialisation request was made using an email address linked to a family that appeared at the inquest in February 2026. The family, including a teenage boy and his sister, denied involvement in the request and stated they did not know Noah before his disappearance. The mother of the teenagers confirmed she had no dealings with Meta or prior knowledge of Noah. Fiona Donohoe expressed distress over being locked out of her son's account and denied any involvement in the memorialisation process. The coroner granted anonymity to the family members who gave evidence behind a curtain.
