THE family of missing mother Victoria Taylor faced heartbreak yesterday after a body was found in a river close to where she was last seen alive.
Victoria, 34, who has a two-year-old daughter with fiance Matthew Williams, vanished three weeks ago.
She was last spotted on CCTV near her home in Malton, North Yorks.
Police said a body was recovered by underwater search teams in the River Derwent at 11.45am, near where Victoria's possessions were found.
Assistant Chief Constable Wayne Fox added formal identification had not yet taken place but Victoria's family had been informed and were "understandably distressed".
He added: "The disappearance of Victoria has had a wider impact.
"Those closest to her have felt an enormous amount of heartache in the days after she went missing and have acknowledged how grateful they are for the overwhelming support.
