Media personality Charlotte Dawson has been found dead in her Sydney home.

Police have confirmed a woman's body was found at the address in Wooloomooloo and there were no suspicious circumstances.

The New Zealand-born Dawson, 47, had a history with depression, and was hospitalised in 2012 after an alleged suicide attempt.

The former Next Top Model judge was the target of an internet bullying campaign, due to her work with an anti-cyber-bullying campaign.
