River searches have taken place since Ms Taylor was reported missing on October 1, including using divers and specialist sonar equipment.

Just over a week after she went missing, police said there was a “significant possibility” she had entered the river.

In a statement released by police a week ago, Ms Taylor’s sisters Emma and Heidi said: “The local community has been amazing, from putting up posters to taking daily walks to look for Vixx.

“We would like to thank the special people, you know who you are.”

They added: “The wider community on the Facebook page, with over 10,000 people sharing information about Vixx and sending their support, has reassured us.”
