Tali Lennox-Fruchtmann says her heart is “shattered” after the body of her missing boyfriend, Ian Jones, was possibly found almost three days after the kayaking accident. Neither was wearing a life vest.

She continued: “All the love that has been sent to me is giving me the strength to get through this”.
Tali and Ian were involved in a bad kayaking accident over the weekend during which he went missing. “I know that he is so-so happy that I was safely rescued”, she wrote.
“Let us honor & celebrate this lovely soul & keep following the light”.
Tali Lennox, 22, posted a shot to Instagram after the body was pulled out of the river, seemingly suggesting that it did belong to Jones.
In a statement the Dutchess County Sheriff’s Office said: “Just after 12:00 pm on 8/10/15 a human male body was located in the Hudson River near the Poughkeepsie Yacht Club”.
On Monday, authorities announced they’d recovered a unidentified body from the Hudson River, but the Dutchess County Sheriff’s Office told People there was a “strong possibility” that it was the 32-year-old.
An autopsy is set for Tuesday. The entire area also was searched with the assistance of a New York State Police helicopter and numerous officers on foot and in boats.
The New York City-based couple have been dating for several years. Fruchtmann is the daughter of pop star and former Eurythmics member Annie Lennox and film producer Uri Fruchtmann.
