The grieving widow of beloved television doctor Michael Mosley has broken her silence in a moving statement that reveals the harrowing details of his final hours before tragically dying on the Greek island of Symi.
In an emotional tribute released on Monday, Dr Clare Bailey Mosley described her husband of nearly forty years as "wonderful, funny, kind and brilliant" as she shared the devastating impact of his sudden passing.
The search for the missing health guru began last Wednesday when he failed to return from a coastal walk in scorching temperatures exceeding 35°C. What followed was a massive four-day operation involving police, firefighters, drone operators and volunteers desperately scouring the rugged terrain.
Tragically, Dr Mosley's body was discovered on Sunday morning just meters from the safety of a popular beach resort. The initial investigation suggests the 67-year-old collapsed from exhaustion after attempting to navigate the treacherous landscape in extreme heat.
An outpouring of grief has flooded social media and news outlets since the discovery, with colleagues, friends, and millions of viewers who followed Dr Mosley's career expressing their shock and sadness.
Known for his groundbreaking work on intermittent fasting and making complex science accessible to millions, Dr Mosley became a household name through his regular appearances on BBC's The One Show and his own documentaries.
His wife concluded her statement with a heartfelt message: "I feel so lucky to have had this life with you for 38 years." The family has requested privacy during this incredibly difficult time as they come to terms with their devastating loss.
