A desperate woman has been living in a motorway services car park for fours waiting for her missing husband to return.

The 58-year-old has turned her silver Toyota Celica into her home.

The unnamed woman’s vehicle even shows up on Google Street View.

She has built her life around a small rest area on the Barchon motorway near the Belgian city of Liège.

The woman has become well known among lorry drivers and other regular visitors to the motorway service station.

She has covered the car windows with black plastic sheeting with at least one left open for ventilation.

Groceries and utensils have been arranged on the back seat, turning it into a makeshift kitchen.

Her husband mysteriously vanished in Liège in 2020 and she has not given up hope of him one day showing up.

One local said: “I saw this car there as well as I had the same model at the time.”

Rita said: “Blimey, four years of waiting.”
