Paul Ansell, partner of Nicola Bulley who disappeared and was later found dead in a river, says the initial public interest in her case was helpful but the wave of online speculation and amateur sleuths became toxic.
The partner of Nicola Bulley has said the online obsession with his former partner who disappeared last year became a "monster". The mum-of-two vanished in January 2023 while walking her dog in St Michael's on Wyre, Lancashire, shortly after dropping her daughters at school.Her body was found in a river less than a month later. An inquest found the 45-year-old accidentally drowned.
Mr Ansell said he recieved messages from strangers saying things like "We know what you did" and "You can't hide Paul" and "You b******"."If you reply to that, thewy'll just sss your reply and that'll end up on social media."You are literally silenced." The documentary explores the turmoil the family went through as the search intensified - as well as the impact it had on the couple's young children.
