Ms Morris was last seen at about 02:30 BST on Saturday after a night out, wearing a long-sleeved red top and jeans.

Police believe the rugby player did not go inside her house and instead went down a lane that leads towards a bridge that goes into Treharris.

Hundreds of people from the area, some on scrambler bikes or with dogs, had joined the search, co-ordinated from Treharris Phoenix RFC.

Police say the body was found in the River Taff downstream of Treharris.
