Abi worked as a teacher at Featherstone All Saints CE Academy and had a passion for science.

Today her family issued a new photograph and this tribute to their “beautiful angel.”

It reads: “Our beautiful Abi. Words cannot describe how utterly devastated we are at the loss of you. We miss you dearly. We promise to make you proud every single day, and will continue to bring up your amazing little baby girl the way you would.

“Heaven may have gained an angel but we have lost you and that for us seems like the most unjust act to happen.

“We as a family would like to thank every single person who showed enough heart and love to look for our precious angel. Words will never describe how much this means.

“For now our beautiful angel. We love you so much.”

Matthew Fisher, believed to be Abi's husband, was arrested after her body was found on Sunday. (July 10)

Matthew, 29, of Walton Park Street, Castleford, has now been charged over Abi's murder.

He has been remanded in custody to appear at Leeds Magistrates Court on Wednesday morning.
