Latest Update: A Body Found After British Presenter Michael Mosley, Went Missing For Days

Missing British TV presenter Michael Mosley’s wife has paid tribute to her husband after a body was found in Greece, saying it was “devastating to have lost Michael, my wonderful, funny, kind and brilliant husband.”

Mosley, who gives health advice on British media, disappeared on Wednesday June 5 after going for a walk alone on the Greek island of Symi.

According to the police, the removal of the body has begun so that it can be transported to nearby Rhodes for a post-mortem and identification.

The police, fire detachment, coast gatekeeper and volunteers have gone through days scanning land areas and sea for the doctor, who didn’t take his telephone with him. Police had also looked into reports that he spoke to people in the area while he was walking before his demise.

The Pedi area of the island, where a woman reported seeing him on Wednesday, was said to be the focus of the search operation on Friday, June 7. The sea side close where the body was found isn’t a long way from that area.

“We had an incredibly lucky life together,” Mosley’s wife, Dr. Claire Bailey, said in a statement. “We loved each other very much and were so happy together.”

The television doctor is known for UK documentary shows such as Channel 4’s “Michael Mosley: Who Made Britain Fat?” and the BBC’s “Trust Me, I’m A Doctor.”

Mosley popularized a type of intermittent fasting known as the 5:2 diet, and authored a book on the fast 800 diet, which focuses on time-restricted eating for rapid weight loss. His wife, wrote a recipe book as part of “The Fast 800” book series.

The 67-year-old broadcaster also appeared on British factual entertainment programmes such as BBC’s “The One Show” and ITV’s “This Morning,” and is a columnist for British newspaper the Daily Mail.

After executive producing the BBC miniseries “The Human Face” in 2001, which investigated the science behind facial beauty, expression, and fame, he was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award in 2002 for outstanding non-fiction special (informational).

The father of four deliberately infested himself with parasites to learn more about them for BBC’s 2014 programme “Infested! Living with Parasites.”

Mosley and his wife, who host theatre tours together, last month attended the literary Hay Festival in Wales, where he presented a special edition of his BBC Radio 4 show “Just One Thing,” according to PA Media.

A spokesperson for the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office said, “We are supporting the family of a British man who has died in Greece and are in contact with the local authorities.”
