Price’s boyfriend reported filed a missing person report in Cobb County following a welfare check that took place at her home last Saturday but authorities claim there was no foul play involved. According to TMZ, Price is now listed as a missing person with the National Crime Information Center.
Prior to her sudden disappearance, Price revealed to her fans back in July that she was battling the coronavirus and the symptoms were taking a toll on her. She was admitted to a hospital approximately a week later and placed in the ICU after her symptoms worsened. Her family also said she was in contact with them during her stay at the hospital in August and her children visited her several times. Three weeks after, Price’s children received a phone call that she was discharged from the hospital although they said she didn’t appear to be fully recovered from the virus.
