The socialite's older sibling seemingly attempted to shield her face with her large hood as she visited the property where her sister was found dead.
The 47-year-old's outing comes just hours after she broke her silence following the discovery of Tara's body at the Earl's Court flat.
The former I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! died after being diagnosed with a brain tumour in January last year.
Carrying a large wicker bag, Santa eyes remained on the ground as she wrapped up in a chunky khaki coat, skinny jeans and a black jumper.

My darling sister. I miss you.
The author, who added a casual pair of black plimsolls to her attire, appeared to be supported by unknown male.
Yesterday, Santa took to her Instagram page to pay tribute, where she uploaded a smiley, black and white image of Tara.
She movingly captioned it: "My darling sister. I miss you," and she was quickly flooded with kind messages of support.
