The family of a four-year-old British boy and his mother who went missing after travelling to Turkey have spoke of their relief after both were found safe and well.
George Jack Temperley-Wells is believed to have travelled to Antalya with mum Brogan Elizabeth Temperley on June 29 this year before both vanished. They are likely to have spent time with his father, 41-year-old Scott Nigel Wells, while in Turkey.
Brogan's grandparents Maureen, 78, and George, a retired Royal Navy diver and businessman 85, who lived alongside their granddaughter near Darlington, County Durham, had been desperately waiting for news of their loved ones.
They revealed she had no idea of the 'rumpus' she had caused and was catching the next flight home.
Retired Royal Navy diver and businessman George said: She got the shock of her life when she read about this.
She said 'Grandad I am coming straight home'. She was frightened to death by the publicity and in a hell of a state. She said 'Have you seen the news grandpa? What the hell is happening?'

'I told her "You have caused a right rumpus. What are you going to do?" She said "I am coming straight home".
'I did not even ask her where she was or what she had been doing. She just said "I coming straight home grandpa because this has really frightened me".
'She cannot understand why anyone would think the boy is in danger. It is ridiculous. There was never any chance of that bairn coming to harm.
'She idolises him. He is with her 24 hours a day when they are at home, I can tell you that. Someone had been in touch with her to tell her she was in the news.
'We did not even discuss what she had been doing because she was in such a hurry to get home as soon as possible.
'Thank God it is all finished now. She is my favourite granddaughter. I know her like the back of my hand. There is now way she would put George in danger.

'I was worried to death to tell you the truth. But I knew she would be okay. She is not back in Britain yet but she has booked straightway to come home.'
Mr Temperley said his daughter met George's dad, who is English, when he was living in Darlington and she was working at a local estate agents but they had a very unhappy relationship and split up before George was born, with Mr Wells moving out of the area.
