DAD’S DESPERATE SEARCH: IS TIK TOK GIRL MISSING AVA GRACE, 6?

Social media is buzzing with intrigue as conspiracy theories suggest that Ava Grace Baldwin, previously missing, may have been found. Allegations are spreading that she appears in various TikTok videos, sparking debates over whether this Ava is the same one whom Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was rumored to have adopted, as mentioned in his social media posts.

Ava Grace Baldwin went missing when she was just six years old, vanishing from her elementary school. Her father, David Hopper, suspects that Ava is with her biological mother, Kathryn Ann Baldwin, his ex-wife, and believes she is concealing Ava to prevent him from seeing her.

A now-teenaged Ava was last spotted in San Antonio, Texas, on September 17, 2015. Kathryn Ann Baldwin faces a felony charge for interfering with child custody. David Hopper is convinced that his ex-wife is in hiding with their daughter to obstruct his chances of a relationship with Ava.

Ava’s mother and father, David Hopper, had joint custody of her. After Hopper requested full custody, Kathryn disappeared with Ava Grace. Kathryn’s vehicle, a silver 2014 Ford Escape with the Illinois license plate number Q29-2793, was found abandoned in a parking lot on Whitby Road in San Antonio in April 2016, just seven months after the pair disappeared without a trace.

Kathryn has a history of alcohol and prescription drug abuse, suffers from mental illness, and is supposed to take medication, but there’s been no record of her refilling her prescriptions since 2015. She and Ava may move frequently and may be staying in women’s shelters and/or homeless shelters. Kathryn may tell people she is being stalked.

Kathryn’s family states they haven’t seen or heard from Kathryn or Ava since 2015, and they too believe both are dead, but Hopper thinks they are alive and in hiding, possibly being helped by friends or family. Kathryn has family in Texas, Oklahoma, California, Florida, and Illinois, and friends in several parts of the country as well.

Ava’s disappearance remains unsolved. She was involved in cheerleading, soccer, gymnastics, and tumbling prior to her disappearance.
