“Kate and Gerry are just happy to be back at
home. They have been through three or four

as a GP – Mr Kennedy said: “I don’t know. I
don’t think they’ll be thinking about that for a
while yet.”
Behind him, on one of the downstairs
windowsills, was a pile of cuddly toys. The
curtains to the upstairs bedrooms, including
Madeleine’s, painted her favourite pink,
were closed.
A family friend said the room had been left as it
was, “ready for her to come home”.
