Elizabeth "Lizzie" Dennison (26th October 1992-26th January 2019) was a Kuboian actress, singer and television personality. She first starred as a child actress in the television series Charlie Karma and Company before being signed to Top Bops at the age of nine years old.

Biography
Elizabeth Dennison was born on 26th October 1992 in Jaillage, East Kuboia, to parents of Dutch origin. Her parents had an on-and-off relationship until they permanently separated when she was three years old. At the age of five, Dennison's paternal grandmother signed her up to drama classes as a way to get her away from arguments that would frequently occur at her home. Eventually, at the age of seven, she began to appear in episodes of Charlie Karma and Company after being recommended by her drama teacher.

Dennison was diagnosed with autism shortly after she was hired to appear in the show after Tone Riddles began to notice her symptons. Whilst acting, she befriended the other children who appeared on the show. Her nickname Lizzie was first used by Rosie Flournoy, which she chose to stick with.

Personal life
Dennison struggled with poor mental health and allegedly suffered from "Peter Pan syndrome". According to her family, friends and acquaintances, she had difficulty dealing with rejection, and would frequently compare herself to others. In 2009 at the age of sixteen, she moved out of her mother's house into a sheltered accommodation for people with learning disabilities. She was moved to a different accommodation in 2013, where she lived for the rest of her life.

Dennison dated fellow Charlie Karma and Company star Tyo Flournoy during 2004. She later dated Tyh Nordin for a brief period 2010, and did not date again after their separation. According to her friends and family, Dennison's low self-esteem prevented her from having long-term relationships.

Dennison attended a school for children with learning disabilities until the age of fifteen. She continued with her acting and singing career shortly thereafter.

Death
Dennison died in her home on 26th January 2019 at the age of 26. No cause of death was immediately given, though it was reported that she seemed "off" for some time.

TVVC later reported that Dennison appeared to have died from an overdose of antidepressants. Her carers had made attempts in the past to make sure Dennison didn't have anything dangerous in her home since her "curiosity" occasionally got her into trouble, and was warned to not take medicine without telling others. One of Dennison's family members mentioned that she must have found a way to sneak the pills in and "wanted to see" what happened if she took all of the them.

When speaking of Dennison's death in November 2020 Charlie Karma, she noted that Dennison had been angry at her family for some time and believed that she deliberately overdosed to "punish" them. Dennison's father meanwhile, blamed her estate for not enforcing her "drug ban" more.

Reactions and tributes
Dennison's death caused shock within the television and music industry. Both of Dennison's former boyfriends suffered from depression after her death. TVVC left a message on Facebook paying tribute to Dennison and asking to "give [her] friends and family some breathing space during these tough times".

Some sources believed that Dennison committed suicide due to stress regarding negative experiences during her acting and music career, such as being manipulated and gaslit by Dominic Halls, who would allegedly refer to her a "spaz". Halls later responded by stating he had no contact with Dennison during the last ten years of her life.

On 7th February 2019, Vision One reran an episodes of Charlie Karma and Company as a tribute to Dennison.
