THE body of a 24-year-old missing dog walker has been tragically discovered in the River Severn after a three day search operation.

Harriet Davies was reported missing from her home in the Diglis area of Worcester on Tuesday morning.

Emergency services launched a major search operation following reports of a person stranded in the River Severn in an area where Harriet regularly walked her dog.

A West Mercia Police spokesperson said: “Sadly, a body has been found during searches of the river in Worcester on Thursday afternoon.

“The body has been identified as that of the 24-year-old woman who was reported missing from her home in Diglis on Tuesday (25 February).

“Her death is not being treated as suspicious.

“Our thoughts are with her family at this incredibly sad time.”

After crashing out in the first round of the World Championships in December, former champion Smith was left out of this year’s Premier League lineup.

Opening up on his recent ordeal ahead of the UK Open in Minehead, Smith said: “I’ve had cortisone injections in my wrist three weeks ago. My hand is fine at the minute.

“It was a bit sore on the joint. First of all I threw a dart and it missed the board at home and hit the mural which I’ve just painted in my games room, so that was fun.

“Right now it’s fine. For the last week and a half I’ve been able to practice for four hours a day, which I’ve not been able to do for the last 12 weeks.

“I’ve had the arthritis for years. The worst thing has been going to Minehead because it’s so cold there.

“So many times I’ve said online that the cold affects me and everyone says it’s the same for all the players. It’s not really for me because it gets to my wrist.

“I’ve got one of the best hand people in the country with me, so it’s helping me.

“I’ve got an issue with my right shoulder, that was my own fault.

“I’ve done the AC joint in my shoulder. I did that on Christmas Day. I bought the kids two scooters. I thought I’d race one of them. I went over what I thought was a puddle, it was actually a pothole.

“I’ve hit that at 22mph, straight over the handlebars and hit my shoulder into the floor. I couldn’t pick my arm up for seven weeks. I also had a big cut.

“Even now I’ve still got a bit of bone sticking out in my shoulder.”

Smith then revealed that he has got a high-profile Manchester City physio helping him with his recovery.

He added: “I’ve got Man City physio Ben Thompson working with me. My wife Dagmara met Ben at the Manchester Premier League a while back.

“It’s mad that he’ll come to me after doing Haaland’s legs or Foden’s and then be working on my back and shoulders!

“Ben who works with me says it’s more common in rugby, it’s the joint between your collarbone and shoulder.

“It’s called the AC for short (Acromioclavicular). That’s moved and sticks out. I’m told that will never go away now.”

Smith became world champion in 2023 after defeating Michael van Gerwen in the Alexandra Palace final.

He is now hoping to regain form, starting at the Butlin’s UK Open this weekend.

Legendary Hollywood actor Hackman, 95, and his wife, 64, were both discovered in separate rooms inside their $3.8million home on Wednesday.

Hackman was found fully clothed in a wet room off the kitchen, while Betsy was in a bathroom with authorities believing the couple may have been dead for weeks and showed signs of “mummification”.

Investigations are ongoing into their cause of death with several possibilities still being looked at.

Heartbroken daughters Elizabeth and Leslie were seen grabbing breakfast together at a Denny’s restaurant on Thursday morning.

They were seen getting out of a grey SUV and walking into the breakfast chain in Burbank, California. 

Leslie, 59, has lived in California for some time as she revealed the long distance between her home and Hackman’s New Mexico mansion meant they hadn’t seen each other in months.

She added that her father was notoriously reclusive in his later years.

REMARKABLE CAREER

Gene Hackman’s career took off with his role as Buck Barrow in Bonnie and Clyde in 1967.

He went on to star in the Superman films and appeared in hits like Mississippi Burning, Unforgiven, Crimson Tide, and The Poseidon Adventure.

In 1972, he earned the Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of Jimmy “Popeye” Doyle in The French Connection.

Hackman received a second Academy Award in 1993, winning Best Supporting Actor for his role as Little Bill Daggett in the western Unforgiven, alongside Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, and Anna Thomson.

The film won four Oscars, including Best Picture.

Over his illustrious career, Hackman appeared in over 100 films.

He was nominated for five Academy Awards, won two Oscars, earned two BAFTA nominations, and received three Golden Globe awards.

MOVING TRIBUTES

Messages have poured in from fellow stars and even royalty, paying tribute to the legendary actor and his remarkable legacy.

Prince William expressed his sorrow, saying he was “so sad” to hear the heartbreaking news about Gene and his wife.

He added: “Hackman was a true genius of film who brought each and every character to life with power, authenticity and star quality.”

American actor George Takei honored Hackman’s enduring impact, stating: “Gene’s work will live on forever. We have lost one of the true giants of the screen.

“Gene Hackman could play anyone, and you could feel a whole life behind it. He could be everyone and no one, a towering presence or an everyday Joe. That’s how powerful an actor he was.”

Filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola, who worked with Hackman on The Conversation in 1974, remembered him as a “great actor.”

Coppola said: “The loss of a great artist, always cause for both mourning and celebration: Gene Hackman a great actor, inspiring and magnificent in his work and complexity. I mourn his loss, and celebrate his existence and contribution.”
