The family of late TV doctor Michael Mosley have described the past year as “the hardest of our lives” in a message on the first anniversary of his death.<\/b><\/p>\n

Mosley died at the age of 67 after going missing while on holiday on the Greek island of Symi last June.<\/p>\n

He was known for his TV and radio shows and books about health and diet.<\/p>\n

“It’s hard to believe that a year has passed since we lost Michael,” his widow Clare wrote on Instagram<\/a>. “Not a day goes by without thinking of him – his warmth, his laughter, his endless curiosity about the world, and his deep love for our family.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mosley was known for TV series like Trust Me, I’m A Doctor<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

The message added: “This past year has been the hardest of our lives. Navigating the loss of someone so central to our hearts and our home has changed everything.<\/p>\n

“We have missed him in the big moments and the small ones. But we have also felt incredibly supported.”<\/p>\n

It went on to note how the “outpouring of love, stories and memories from so many of you” online had “meant more than we can ever say”.<\/p>\n

“We have taken real comfort in knowing just how many lives Michael touched – not only through his work, but through his kindness, humour, and deep desire to help people live well for longer.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

‘Carry on the work’<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

Last month, his family announced a new Michael Mosley Memorial Research Fund, which will help to appoint a dedicated research scientist to help improve the metabolic health of the nation.<\/p>\n

A clinical research fellowship will be established to honour his memory in partnership with King’s College London and the Chronic Disease Research Foundation.<\/p>\n

The family statement continued: “We are trying, as a family to look forward. To carry on the work Michael was so passionate about. To live with purpose and joy, as he would have wanted us to.”<\/p>\n

Mosley was known for hosting BBC Radio 4’s Just One Thing as well as TV series like Trust Me, I’m A Doctor, The Truth about Exercise, and Lose a Stone in 21 Days.<\/p>\n

In their one-year anniversary message, Mrs Mosley and her family thanked “everyone who has reached out, shared their grief, and carried us with their compassion.”<\/p>\n

They noted: “Your messages, letters and acts of remembrance have helped us through the darkest days.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The presenter went missing after going for a walk on Symi, and his disappearance sparked a high-profile search effort by emergency services. His body was found after four days.<\/p>\n

In December, a coroner said his the cause of his death was “indeterminate”<\/a> but “most likely attributable either to heatstroke (accidental) or non-identified pathological cause”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Hall of Fame<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

As well as hosting TV and radio shows, Mosley wrote a column for the Daily Mail, and published books about intermittent fasting diets, including through the 5:2 diet and The Fast 800 diet.<\/p>\n

Son Dr Jack Mosley, who researched drugs including Ozempic with his father, has also written a book about weight loss and nutrition.<\/p>\n

The BBC honoured his father in July 2024 with a dedicated day of programming, when presenters and audiences where encouraged to do “just one thing” to improve their wellbeing.<\/p>\n

His widow accepted the Hall of Fame award at the British Podcast Awards on her late husband’s behalf in September 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
