Body Found: Search for Missing TV Doctor Michael Mosley

Absent Following news of her husband’s death in Greece, the widow of British TV presenter Michael Mosley paid tribute to him, describing his passing as “devastating to have lost Michael, my amazing funny, kind and brilliant husband.”

Michael Mosley, a British media health expert, vanished on Wednesday on a solitary stroll on the Greek island of Symi.

Konstantia Dimoglidou, a police spokesperson, texted CNN that they are removing the body to take it to nearby Rhodes for post-mortem and identification.

The doctor did not bring his phone with him, so the police, fire department, coast guard, and volunteers have been looking for him on land and at water for days. Reports that he interacted with residents while out for a walk had also prompted police investigation.
