Divers have found the body of the final person missing from the superyacht that sank off Sicily.
Hannah Lynch, 18, the daughter of British tycoon Mike Lynch, was the last remaining person missing after the sinking of the Bayesian on Monday.
Six bodies have been found in the search of the wreckage, the Italian Coastguard said today. This takes the number of confirmed deaths to seven.
Vincenzo Zagarola, from the coastguard, said the search for the final body was not “easy or quick” and likened the sunken yacht to an “18-storey building full of water”.
Five bodies had already been brought to the shore in Porticello, a Sicilian village around 11 miles from the island’s capital Palermo.
