Missing Twin Reanne Coulson Found Dead in Woods in Heartbreaking Case That Shocked the Nation

Published on July 9, 2025

A devastating update has emerged in the search for missing twin Reanne Coulson as police confirm the worst fears her body has been found in woodland.

Reanne, 34, vanished back in May after she was last seen at a food bank in Coventry. Her sudden disappearance quickly triggered a murder investigation, especially after she failed to get in touch with her family on her birthday in June something totally out of character.

It was her twin sister Kirsten who led public appeals to find her, sharing desperate messages on social media. But those hopes were tragically shattered when police discovered a body in Binley Woods on 27 June. The body has now been formally identified as Reanne, reported Metro.co.uk.

Kirsten, clearly heartbroken, posted an emotional tribute on Facebook, writing, “When you lose your sister, you lose your closest confidante, your mirror, your forever friend. Her presence lingers in every memory, but the space beside you feels achingly empty.”

Reanne’s disappearance had gripped the local community and sparked widespread concern, with people sharing appeals and keeping an eye out for any signs of her. Sadly, the news that came on Tuesday confirmed the heartbreak many had feared.

West Midlands Police said in a statement, “Today we can sadly confirm that the body found in Binley Woods is that of Reanne Coulson. Reanne, aged 34, had last been seen in May, and her disappearance led to a major investigation to find her. As a result of information received, a woman’s body was found on June 27. Today she was formally identified as Reanne. We have spoken to Reanne’s family, and are continuing to support them. We are carrying out further inquiries to establish how Reanne died.”

The case has now taken a grim turn in the courts. Mohammed Durnion, 42, has already appeared in court charged with Reanne’s murder. Meanwhile, a second man, 38, has been charged with assisting an offender. Both are now in custody and are set to appear at Warwick Crown Court later this month.

The investigation is still ongoing, and detectives are urging anyone with even the smallest bit of information to come forward.

Detective Superintendent Jim Munro, who’s heading the investigation, said, “We are continuing to do all we can to support Reanne’s family at this awful time, and our thoughts remain firmly with them. The investigation is continuing and I still really want to hear from anyone with information that might help us as we continue to work tirelessly to get answers for Reanne’s family.”

This tragic case has left a deep impact on those who followed the story, especially with the emotional weight of a twin sister searching so publicly and painfully. Now, with charges in place and a court date ahead, Reanne’s loved ones are one step closer to getting the answers they so desperately need.
