This Morning's heartbreaking tribute to show regular Michael Mosley after tragic death

This Morning has paid tribute to Dr Michael Mosley after it was revealed that he had tragically died at the age of 67.

The TV doctor, who was known for his Just One Thing podcast, went missing on the Greek island of Symi after he was last seen by friends at Agios Nikolaos beach on Wednesday, before going for a walk to the centre of the island. After days of searching, on Sunday, 9 June, it was sadly announced that a body had been found in the search for Michael.

Paying tribute to the TV personality, This Morning shared an emotional post on Instagram in which it expressed its heartbreak over the news.

"We're all heartbroken to hear that Michael Mosley has died at the age of 67. His wife Clare has paid tribute to her wonderful, funny, kind and brilliant husband. Everyone at This Morning is thinking of Clare, their four children and the rest of Michael's family and friends at this extremely sad time," a post read alongside a picture of Michael.

In response to the tribute, social media users and famous faces from ITV also shared their condolences. "This is utterly heartbreaking," wrote Lisa Snowdon. "So sad - thinking of his family xx," added Kate Garraway.

Meanwhile, Alison Hammond commented: "So sad for his family". ITV also replied and stated: "Very sad news, our thoughts are with Michael's friends and family".

The post comes after Michael's wife Dr Clare Bailey Mosley, who he shared four children with, shared a devastating statement in which she opened up about her "wonderful, funny, kind and brilliant husband".

In a statement issued on behalf of Clare, she thanked people for their support over recent days and also expressed her gratitude to those people who had helped to find her husband.

"We’re taking comfort in the fact that he so very nearly made it. He did an incredible climb, took the wrong route and collapsed where he couldn’t be easily seen by the extensive search team. Michael was an adventurous man, it’s part of what made him so special," the statement read.

It continued: "We are so grateful to the extraordinary people on Symi who have worked tirelessly to help find him. Some of these people on the island, who hadn’t even heard of Michael, worked from dawn till dusk unasked. We’re also very grateful to the press who have dealt with us with great respect.

“I feel so lucky to have our children and my amazing friends. Most of all, I feel so lucky to have had this life with Michael. Thank you all.”
