The woman has yet to be identified but the family of Eliza Huszti, 32, who had been reported missing in the area on Tuesday, 7 January, has been informed.
The body was just 14 hours after another body was discovered near Aberdeen Boat Club, with the family of Henrietta being informed.
The double tragedy came just days after cops announced they had ended their search of the river.
Eliza and Henrietta Huszti vanished without a trace on January 7.
They were last seen headed towards the river in the early hours of the morning.
Extensive searches were launched to find them, including police divers scouring the River Dee.
Superintendent David Howieson said: “Our thoughts remain with the Huszti family and we are keeping them fully updated following these recoveries.
“We know how much of an impact this has had in Aberdeen and much further afield and I would like to thank everyone who has assisted with our investigation.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson added: “The body of a second woman was recovered from the River Dee in Aberdeen on Friday, 31 January, 2025.
“Officers found the body in an area of the river near to the Victoria Bridge around 9.05pm and it was subsequently recovered.
“The woman has yet to be identified but the family of Eliza Huszti, 32, who had been reported missing in the area on Tuesday, 7 January, has been informed.
“Enquires are ongoing to establish the full circumstances but there are no apparent suspicious circumstances.
“This follows the discovery of the body of a woman in the River Dee around 7.55am on the same date and the family of Henrietta Huszti, 32, were informed.”
The two women are part of a set of triplets and are originally from Hungary.
