Police have found a body in the search for missing man Anthony Hill, 37, who was a former colleague of MoneySavingExpert Martin Lewis.
Hill, who used to work on the deals team of Lewis’s website before becoming a teacher but went missing from Norwich on Monday morning.
He worked there for almost six years before retraining and working at St William’s Primary School in Thorpe St Andrew. He was last seen leaving his Plumstead Road East home on June 17, with the school later confirming he was missing
Norfolk Police released a statement saying: “Police can confirm the body of a man was found in Norwich last night. The body was discovered in an area off Heathgate in the city shortly before 8pm.
“Whilst formal identification is yet to take place, the family of 37-year-old Anthony Hill, who was reported missing from his home in Norwich on Monday have been informed.
“The death is not believed to be suspicious, and a file will be prepared for the coroner in due course.” Hill’s wife Kayleigh helped organise a search of the local area, pleading for help to find the father of her two daughters.
She also took to Facebook to appeal for anyone with doorbell camera or dashcam footage to look back over it in case Hill appeared in any of it and released a photo of what he was last wearing.
Lewis previously called the news of Hill’s disappearance “devastating”. He wrote on X: “Anthony is a lovely man who used to work on the MoneySavingExpert deals team before leaving to pursue his valiant passion to get into teaching.”
He then posted another update to his account on June 19, with a link to a BBC article explaining everything known about the missing person’s case so far.
He wrote: “Many kindly asking what’s happening about Ant Hill husband, daddy, my former colleague, and now primary school teacher, who has gone missing in Norfolk. So many folk are concerned and so many helping.”
