Nicola Bulley's partner has spoken of his "agony" after a body was found by police during the search for the missing 45-year-old. The grim discovery was made roughly a mile from where the mum-of-two was last seen walking her dog in St Michael's on Wyre
Formal identification is yet to be carried out but Nicola's family have been informed. Sky News reporter Inzamam Rashid said that Paul Ansell had been in contact via text.
The Mirror reports that he wrote in a message: "No words right now, just agony." Mr Rashid said the family are "incredibly heartbroken" and will "really be struggling tonight".
