Her skydive club described her death as an apparent deliberate act.
Parents Andrew and Liz said their daughter loved the sport and was training for her pilot’s licence.
They described the marketing exec in a statement as a brilliant, beautiful, brave and truly extraordinary person, with a bright, adventurous, free spirit.
They went on: “She lived with immense energy, passion, and love, and touched countless lives with her warmth and kindness.
“Skydiving meant so much to Jade, and we’re incredibly comforted by how admired, respected, and deeply loved she was.
“We miss her beyond words.”
Jade, who completed more than 400 jumps, had split from her husband last year and had moved in with a new partner.
She is thought to have left a note before her death at Sky-High Skydiving, Peterlee, Durham.
Cops said her death was not suspicious.
You're Not Alone
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide
It doesn’t discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It’s the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it’s rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
That is why The Sun launched the You’re Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.
Let’s all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others… You’re Not Alone.
