A 35-year-old man from Radnorshire has admitted murdering his wife.
The body of 28-year-old mother-of-three Hollie Kerrell was found in April, four days after going missing from her home near Knighton.
Today, Monday, her husband Christopher Llewellyn Kerrell, 35, of Whitton, near Knighton, pleaded guilty at Merthyr Crown Court to her murder.
Judge Mr Justice Morris told Kerrell he can expect to be jailed for life when sentenced, which is expected to be next Monday.
The family of Mrs Kerrell, who had five sisters, said she "lit up every room she was in".
"There was never a dull moment with our quirky, funny Hollie around," they said in a statement shortly after her death.
"She was the glue that held our family together and she will be missed terribly."
Mrs Kerrell's body was found on April 26.
