HANNAH Lynch’s heartbroken family have released new pictures of her and dad Mike after the final body was recovered from the Bayesian superyacht.
Tributes were paid to the young woman as an exceptional student and beloved friend after the horror sinking of the £14million vessel off the coast of Sicily.
Mike, Hannah and four of their pals – Jonathan and Judy Bloomer & Chris and Neda Morvillo – are all understood to have died when the yacht was dragged beneath the waves in a freak storm on Monday.
Divers mounted a five-day search operation which today ended in tragedy as the final body – understood to be Hannah – was recovered this afternoon.
Her heartbroken family have since released tributes to both Hannah and Mike, a tech mogul known as the UK’s Bill Gates.
Katya Lewis, Hannah’s friend, said: “The love Hannah had for everything she held dear was passionate and pure.
“She had a warm and beautiful soul. Being with Hannah made me feel whole and happy.
“She is the most special friend anyone could ask for and I will always love Hannah.”
Hannah was an outstanding student at Latymer Upper School in West London – regularly winning academic prizes.
She had just won a place at the University of Oxford to study English after just receiving her A-level results last Thursday.
