Strong Relationship Keeps Us Going

Sky News Headline; says: 'The mother of Madeleine McCann says her strong relationship with her husband has helped her through the torment of the past three months.

Kate McCann spoke of feeling like the "unluckiest person on the planet" over her four-year-old daughter's abduction in Portugal on May 3. But she said her relationship with her husband Gerry has helped her through the dark days.

She told website www.marieclaire.co.uk: "We are very lucky that we have a very strong relationship.We always have had. We always talk a lot and it's even more important now that we do that. We've got different strengths I guess. We've been able to work together and pull each other through at different times. The hope is still there. We're still trying very much to be positive. We have to keep going for us and for the twins. And also for Madeleine."

Mrs McCann also spoke of her frustration that time was passing without a major breakthrough in the police investigation.

Police have again searched the home of Robert Murat, the chief suspect in the hunt for the little girl. But the search by officers, including two from Britain, of the Praia da Luz villa apparently failed to find any trace of the four-year-old.

Sky News correspondent Greg Milam, who is in the Portuguese holiday resort, said: "Police aren't talking about the search, but Robert Murat certainly appeared much more relaxed this morning."
