This story may have more twists and turns than an actual episode of Gossip Girl. Here is the deal: Chanel Banks, an actress who appeared on the third season of the beloved television show, made headlines last week after her family reported her missing on November 8.

In a since-deleted GoFundMe page, her cousin Danielle-Tori Singh claimed loved ones had not seen or heard from the 36-year-old since October 30.

Her family became very concerned as this was out of the norm for the Blue Bloods alum. Singh, who flew from Toronto to Los Angeles to help search for Chanel, told KABC earlier this week: According to the outlet, law enforcement conducted welfare checks at her home — but Chanel was not there.

Her family said they entered the apartment where she was living with her husband of one year Carlos Jimenez and found her belongings and dog still there.
