Nicola Bulley's partner has visited the river she could have fell in, alongside an expert who fears missing mother was abducted. Paul Ansell has been pictured at the search scene of his missing girlfriend as the investigation reaches its 13th day.
The 44-year-old has been snapped being briefed by police and dive expert, Peter Faulding, as he looked out across the River Wyre at the point where investigators believe his long-term girlfriend fell in. Nicola vanished on January 27 after dropping off her two children at school in Lancashire, before taking family dog Willow for a walk on a nearby trail.
The Mirror reports that her phone was later found on a bench, with the springer spaniel wandering nearby without her harness. Paul is understood to have been contacted by another dog walker who came across the scene on the morning of the disappearance.
