The parents of Madeleine McCann tonight joined friends and well wishers to remember their daughter on the 15th anniversary of her disappearance.
Brave Kate and Gerry, pictured for the first time in public in four years, were welcomed by their community during a prayer service in their home village of Rothley, Leicestershire.
The couple, who hold onto a glimmer of hope that Maddie is still alive, appeared overwhelmed as they joined in prayers and readings to mark the occasion.
