Dr Michael Mosley died while on holiday on the Greek island of Symi
Dr Michael Mosley's widow says she is 'going to be quiet for a while' following the death of her husband while on holiday but has vowed to continue his legacy. Dr Mosley, known around the country for his television work, went missing while holidaying with wife Clare on the Greek island of Symi.
Last seen on June 5, the 67-year-old's body was found five days later in a rocky area of the island. In her first social media post since the tragedy, Dr Clare Bailey Mosley wrote in an Instagram message on Saturday : "Thank you all for your wonderfully supportive messages. The outpouring of love from so many people has meant a huge amount to me and my family.
"I'm going to be quiet for a while. I'm sure you will understand. But I will be back here soon. I very much want to continue with the work that gave Michael and myself so much joy and such a sense of purpose."Once more thank you so much for respecting my family's privacy so kindly. Michael was an amazing man. Thank you for seeing that too. We miss him so much."
An initial post-mortem examination of Dr Mosley's body concluded that he died of natural causes at around 4pm on the day he went missing. Greek authorities later said they believed the doctor had died of heat exhaustion after walking in temperatures of around 40°C. Through his book The Fast Diet, co-authored with journalist Mimi Spencer, Dr Mosley is credited with popularising the 5:2 diet, a form of intermittent fasting. He later advocated The Fast 800 diet, which follows a "moderately low-carb, Mediterranean-style diet".
