Pictures of missing mum Nicola Bulley's 45th birthday celebrations have emerged as the search to find her enters its 11th day.
Nicola, 45, was walking her dog when she went missing on Friday, January 27, near the River Wyre in Lancashire.
She had dropped her children off at school that morning before taking the family pup, Willow, on a walk.

The mum, whose phone was found at the scene of her disappearance and logged into a work conference on Teams, is now believed to have approached the river, according to Lancashire Police.
Expert diving teams were called in by Lancashire Police on Sunday (February 5), run by forensics expert Peter Faulding and his Specialist Group International, to search the riverbed, but there has been no sign of her for more than 10 days.
Mr Faulding earlier claimed the mobile phone finding could have been a “decoy”, while also stating that he “can't get my head around” her disappearance.
And now images from her birthday celebration have emerged.
The photos from October 12, 2022, which the Daily Star found on her public work-related Facebook page – named Nikki Bulley – Mortgage Adviser - show Nicola being gifted with a special parcel from estate agents Love Homes, which was a box of bath bombs and body wash.
She was also given a huge chocolate birthday cake, a big heart balloon and many cards.
The caption reads: “It’s been a busy work day today and it’s my birthday!
“Thank you to everyone that has sent me birthday wishes, gifts and cards!
“I’m feeling the love.
“Thank you @Love Homes for the lovely gift I’m going to smell wonderful.”
“I’m finally sat with a cheeky birthday Prosecco.”
It is not clear if the images were taken at home, as it appears to be in a room with a dining table in front of her, while a couch and lamp are seen behind.
The search for her and investigation into the disappearance continues.
