Ranvir Singh has shared her devastation after a body was found in the search for This Morning star Michael Mosley.

On Sunday, it was confirmed that a body had been found in the rescue operation for missing TV doctor Michael - who vanished near a hiking trail on a stunning Greek island.

Taking to Instagram on Sunday, former Strictly star Ranvir wrote: "Terribly sad news. Thank you for changing the lives of thousands of people - including mine - for the better."

Drones were deployed earlier this week as part of the search and rescue mission in Symi, one of Greece's Dodecanese Islands. Mosley, known for his appearances on The One Show and This Morning was on holiday with his wife Clare at the time.

The TV doctor was spotted walking through the town of Pedi on the Aegean island of Symi on Wednesday at 1.52pm, around 20 minutes after setting off from St Nickolas beach on a hiking trail. Many believed that he may have run into trouble during that hike, but searchers on Saturday night turned their focus to a cave system known as The Abyss that they believe he could have entered.

Helicopters, drones, dogs and a number of emergency responders continue to scour the Dodecanese Island. Local police were informed about the disappearance of the on Wednesday.

On Saturday, Michael's family spoke out for the first time through his wife. In a moving statement, the first released publicly since her husband went missing, Dr Bailey Mosley said: "It has been three days since Michael left the beach to go for a walk. The longest and most unbearable days for myself and my children.

"The search is ongoing and our family are so incredibly grateful to the people of Symi, the Greek authorities and the British Consulate who are working tirelessly to help find Michael. We will not lose hope."

On Friday, the mayor’s daughter Mika Papakalodouka told the PA news agency that “a lot of” island residents had joined the search using their own boats to find the British national.

“It is a small island, people talk. We’re good people actually here. Everybody is looking for him,” the 20-year-old told PA. "It’s such a small island to get lost on. It’s so for us. Everybody is worried and looking for him.”
