Loose Women star Nadia Sawalha has appealed for more information surrounding the disappearance of her daughter’s friends Owen Harding.
The 55-year-old posted an emotional plea for any further details that could help find the missing teenager who was seen last on Thursday evening when he left his home after a disagreement.
Speaking on Instagram, the panelist said his family is “distraught” with worry and they still “haven’t heard any news”.
She asked her following to get in touch with West Sussex Police if they can provide additional information that would help with the search.

“Hey everyone,” she began.
“Thank you so much. So many of you have shared my Instagram posts regarding Owen Harding, my daughter’s friend.
“He just 16 and he went missing last Thursday. You can only imagine how distraught his mum, his family, his friends are.
“We still haven’t heard anything, no news I’m afraid. If you could please keep on sharing, and just below here is the crime number and the link to West Sussex police.
“If you could remember anything at all, any scrap of information the family would be so grateful. Thanks again.”

She added: “I never met him but my daughter spoke about him and he sounded like such a lovely boy.”
According to the appeal, Owen normally wears white trainers, tracksuit trousers and a dark hoodie.
There were concerns that he may have tried to travel to see his girlfriend in York, but he has not arrived there or made any contact.

Owen’s mum Stella previously said: “Clearly it is a really difficult time for everyone at the moment… and our ability to get out of the house and find him is limited.
“We think there is a possibility something has happened to Owen and are appealing for those in Saltdean, Telscombe, Ovingdean and Brighton to look out for him.”
