A close friend of the late Shane Warne has shared the final photo taken of Warne while the cricket legend was still alive.
Warne's close friend Thomas Hall shared a photo taken of Warne in Koh Samui, Thailand, where he died of a heart attack on Saturday morning NZ time.
The photo of a smiling, effervescent Warne seems a fitting reflection of the Australian national treasure who is being so warmly remembered across the globe.
Thai police confirmed on Monday night an autopsy at the Surat Thani Hospital found Warne died of natural causes.
The Warne family has reportedly been angered at photos being taken of Warne's body and a potential security breach which is being investigated by Thai authorities.
The ABC reports a German woman was able to enter an ambulance carrying Warne's body and spend over half a minute alone in the vehicle. The moment was captured on camera.
Footage shows the woman carrying a small bunch of flowers and approaching the ambulance which was transporting Warne's body from Koh Samui where he died, via ferry to the mainland.
Details about Warne's final hours are continuing to emerge.
Hall's photo was posted on Instagram on Friday, hours before Warne's death.
A masseuse had visited Warne on Friday but police were not clear on what time of the day.
According to The Daily Mail, four women, identified as masseuses, were the last to see Warne alive.
Around 5.15pm he was found face down on his bed after a suspected heart attack by close friend Andrew Neophitou, who was an executive producer of a recently released documentary on Warne's life.
The first day of the Test match between Australian and Pakistan was playing on the television in his room.
His friends attempted to perform CPR before an ambulance arrived before he was pronounced dead on arrival at a nearby hospital.
Thai Police ruled out foul play and confirmed details about the chest pains Warne experienced prior to his death.
Police Colonel Yuthana Sirisombat told reporters on Saturday night his family had informed them of the late cricket legend's history of heart disease and asthma and their concern about his health before he left Australia last week.
The 52-year-old had recently "seen a doctor about his heart", Sirisombat said.
Colonel Sirisombat said it was these family revelations — and a review of CCTV footage — that led police to rule out any foul play in the father-of-three's death.
Hall, meanwhile, also shared details of his getaway with Warne, including the fact the Victorian's final meal was vegemite on toast.
Aussie test great Damien Martyn commented on an Instagram photo showing a jar of vegemite which was posted by Hall on Monday: "The picture says it all. Last meal and true to the end. Hope all okay up there as good as one can be after this happening".
Hall, who met Warne about 15 years ago at a charity poker tournament and remained close ever since, penned an article on The Sporting News — which he is CEO of — paying tribute to the leg-spinner and detailing the last moments they shared together.
On Monday evening, members of Warne's family issued heartfelt tributes honouring the cricket icon after his shock death.
Shane's parents, Keith and Brigitte, his brother Jason, his children, Jackson, Summer and Brooke and his ex-wife, Simone, each released statements on Monday evening.
Keith and Brigitte described the past three days as a "never-ending nightmare" for the Warne family, while Jason called it a "truly heartbreaking" ordeal.
Jackson vowed to "try and be happy" after his father's sudden passing, while Summer described Shane as "the best dad someone could ever ask for".
Simone offered the briefest statement, sharing a powerful quote: "Who bring a light so great to the world that even after they have gone the light remains."
The 22-year-old's selection is about so much more than just statistics.
