Tributes paid to Mike ****** and daughter Hannah after bodies found

Tributes have been paid to 18-year-old Hannah ******, after divers recovered what is believed to be her body in the wreckage of a luxury yacht which sank off Sicily.

Hannah was the last person unaccounted for after the luxury yacht Bayesian foundered during a freak storm off the Italian fishing village of Porticello, east of Palermo, claiming seven lives in total.

Friends have described her as a “warm and beautiful soul”, while teachers praised her “sky-high intellectual ability”.

The body of her father, tech entrepreneur Mike ******, was recovered from the shipwreck earlier this week.

The family released a picture of the two on Friday.

A total of 15 people survived, including

After reports emerged that the final body had been found, a coastguard vessel which had been at the site of the shipwreck for hours could be seen back in the port.

Meanwhile, a helicopter landed nearby as divers took off their orange suits on the quayside.

A decision on whether to raise the sunken yacht from the seabed is “not on the agenda” but will be in the future, a spokesperson from the Italian Coastguard has said.

The ship was “practically intact” on the seabed, according to divers on the search and rescue team.

Hannah ****** had recently finished her A-levels and had been offered a place to study English at the University of Oxford, according to the Times.

“We are all incredibly shocked by the news,” a spokesperson for London’s Latymer Upper School in Hammersmith, where Hannah was a former pupil, said.

“Our thoughts are with their family and everyone involved,” they added.
