Nicola Bulley: ‘Vile’ theories over missing mother ‘incredibly hurtful’ for family
“Vile theories” over missing Nicola Bulley that are being shared online are “incredibly hurtful” for her family, a friend has said.
Heather Gibbons said that while it is “human nature” for people to speculate, some may not realise that Ms Bulley’s family can see and read their comments.
