       Ethan's family said they "burst with pride every day" because of their "beautiful, selfless, kind and caring" boy, and his death left them "totally devastated".

       Scooter rider Ethan tragically died of his injuries in September last year - and went on to donate his organs to save other lives.

       Judge Rhys Rowlands told her that despite her previous good character "an immediate custodial sentence is quite inevitable".

       He said: "Miss Gleave, you pleaded guilty to what is not only a tragedy but, of course, an extremely serious offence."

       Parents Helen and Paul Ross said: "We are all totally devastated and our hearts ache so very much for the loss of our beautiful, selfless, kind, caring, determined, quiet, gifted, Chelsea FC loving son.

       "He made us burst with pride every single day."

       They added that Ethan was able to donate his organs and "give the most precious thing of all, a gift of life to others."

       Ethan's mother said she last saw her son when he left their house to start a double shift as a waiter at a castle restaurant.

       He told her: "See you later, I love you" before riding off on his moped.

       Ethan's organs were donated after his death and his mother said her son "has helped so many" lives.

       The family has been contacted by the woman who has received Ethan's kidney after waiting for years for a transplant.

       "It just means we can tell everybody about Ethan and keep him alive," said Helen. "He will never be forgotten".

       Gleave, of Shotton, admitted causing death by dangerous driving at St Asaph, Clwyd, in September last year.

       The sentence was adjourned at Mold Crown Court until December 9 for a report.
