The 51-year-old’s family understandably feared for the worst whenever Metropolitan Police contacted them to say they believed the body was Green’s.
Green had recently gone missing, and officials sought the public’s help in trying to track her down.
Thankfully for them, that turned out to not be the case.
Though the identity of the female has yet to be determined, authorities at first mistakenly thought the body was the artist Endellion Lycett Green, who is the granddaughter of the beloved former poet laureate Sir John Betjeman.
