Video report by ITV News Anglia's Sarah Cooper
The family of a missing woman from Milton Keynes has been told a body has been found in a wood in Hertfordshire.
31-year-old Natalie Hemming from Alderney Avenue in Milton Keynes was last seen three weeks ago at her mother's home in Hemel Hempstead.
On Sunday a member of the public found a body in woodland at Toms Hill in Chandler's Cross.
Her partner has been charged with her murder.
The news has shocked people living in the idyllic Hertfordshire village, with many upset by the discovery.
Over the last few weeks police have searched woods near Natalie's house in Milton Keynes, and their investigations inside the family home found a red rug missing from the living room.
Detectives also seized a black Ford S Max car that they think could be connected with Natalie's disappearance.
Although the body hasn't been formally identified, her family have been informed and the investigation into what happened to Natalie continues.
