Michael Mosley's wife suffers three more family tragedies after losing her soulmate

It's been 15 months since Dr Michael Mosley tragically died while on holiday with his wife and friends on the Greek island of Symi.

The acclaimed TV doctor went on a walk alone in unforgiving terrain before he disappeared. For four days and nights, search parties scoured the island before his body was found.

Michael had slipped and fallen on a rocky path within two hours of leaving his wife on the beach, and died of suspected heatstroke.

It's something that his wife Clare - who was married to Michael for 37 years - is still struggling to come to terms with. And on top of the loss of her beloved husband, she has also been faced with three other family tragedies since that fateful day.

Since flying home from Greece last June, Clare has lost her father as well as her uncle, and she has also lost her stepsister, who was only in her early forties.

"[It was] a terrible year that started with the dog dying," she told The Sunday Times. "I don't think one can make sense of it. The shock is so profound, I don't know how to."

She further explained that the fact no one is to blame for Michael's death is a great blessing.

"It was so random. There was nothing to be angry about. And how lucky is that? Isn't that incredible? If somebody was to blame, it would have been very different," she said.

"The worst has happened, but there are so many permutations in which it could have been so much worse. He could not have been found. Or one of the boys could have found him and that would have been devastating".

Clare shared that she and her four children - Alex, 35, Jack, 33, Dan, 31, and Kate, 26 - returned to Greece to mark the first anniversary of Michael's death, though the family decided not to stay on Symi.

It comes after Clare bravely spoke about the heartbreaking day she lost her husband - and the moment she knew there was something 'devastatingly' wrong.

In a previous interview with MailOnline, Clare recalled how Michael, 67, wanted to go for a walk while she and their friends sunbathed around the pool.

But he didn't return. Clare immediately contacted the emergency services but as daylight began to fade on the first day of their search, she said: "Then it got dark. It became devastatingly obvious something had gone terribly wrong." As that night came to an end, she went to bed, and just "curled up" and "cried".

Michael was a popular TV presenter, scientist and journalist who published several books on diet and fasting. His bestselling books include The Clever Guts Diet, The Fast Diet, Fast Exercise and The 8-Week Blood Sugar Diet, and he also created the 5:2 diet.
