The body pulled from the River Wyre Sunday has been confirmed to be that of missing mother Nicola Bulley, police said. A statement from the family was read at a press conference.
"She was the center of our world," a family statement read by police said. "Our girls will get the support they need from the people who love them the most." Bulley was last spotted walking her dog on a footpath by the river in St Michael's on Wyre, Lancashire.

The statement continued to say that it saddened the family to think that one day they will have to explain to Bulley's children that the press and members of the public accused their father of wrongdoing in the disappearance, as well as "misquoted" and "vilified" friends and family.
