A doorbell camera captured Nicola Bulley leaving her home for the last time on the day she vanished, one of her friends has revealed, as a desperate search for the missing dog walker continues.
The 45-year-old was last seen more than a week ago, walking her dog Willow in Lancashire. Police are working on the theory she fell into the River Wyre.
New CCTV pictures, captured by her Ring camera on 27 January, show Ms Bulley loading her car outside her home before driving her two children to school.
She is seen wearing a long dark coat – believed to be black. Her blonde hair is pulled back in a ponytail.
Ms Bulley was last seen walking her dog a short while later on a footpath near the waterways of St Michael’s on Wyre village.
Police previously confirmed the items of clothing she was wearing included an ankle-length black quilted gilet jacket, a black Engelbert Strauss waist-length coat, tight-fitting black jeans, long green walking socks, ankle-length green Next wellies, a necklace, and a pale blue Fitbit.

The crucial 10-minute window
Authorities are focusing on a crucial 10-minute window when the mortgage adviser’s movements are unaccounted for between 9.10am and 9.20am.
But her family and friends have claimed there is “no evidence whatsoever” behind the theory she fell into the river.
Ms Bulley’s friend, Emma White, told Sky News on Saturday the “police hypothesis is on limited information”.
She said: “When we are talking about a life we can’t base it on a hypothesis – surely we need this factual evidence.
“That’s what the family and all of us are holding on to – that we are sadly no further on than last Friday.”
