THE wealthy boyfriend of a Brit who went missing two weeks ago in the Caribbean is refusing to let police search his yacht.
Ex-air hostess Sarm Heslop, 41, vanished from the £500,000 Siren Song at night after the couple returned from a meal ashore.
But detectives investigating her disappearance say partner Ryan Bane, 44, is refusing to talk to them or let them go aboard.
They said: “On his attorney’s advice, Mr Bane exercised his right to remain silent and denied officers’ requests to search the vessel.”
Experienced transatlantic sailor Sarm, who met Ryan on Tinder eight months ago, went missing while the yacht was anchored 50ft from shore off St John, the third largest of the US Virgin Islands.
