After days of searching for missing Ben, 32, a relative announced on social media that a body has been found by members of the search team.
Cops say the body is believed to belong to the Brit.
The Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office (FCDO) confirmed the tragic find on Saturday as they said: “We are supporting the family of a British man who has died in Turkey and we are in contact with the local authorities.”
His family launched a desperate appeal to find Ben with them saying he was from the Abertridwr area.
They said he was last seen in Kaleici which sits in the centre of the city of Antalya.
He was wearing a black Versace shirt, black shorts, and white Nike trainers with a blue tick when he disappeared.
It comes as a top Brit climber and her American pal are missing after scaling a 23,000ft mountain in treacherous conditions.
Briton Fay Manners, 37, and Michelle Dvorak, 31, have been missing for over two days after trekking up the looming Chaukhamba mountain in northern India.
The head of the rescue operation told The Sun that his team are planning to go up the same route up the mountain on Sunday.
He said: “There are so many agencies working here. They are all working in coordination with each other.
“The Indian Army, Indian Air Force, the District Administration, State Administration, along with my team, the State Disaster Response Force.
“We hope to evacuate these two ladies as soon as possible.”
