The brother of the missing woman featured in the hit Netflix docuseries “Amy Bradley is Missing” spoke with Fox News Digital to share additional details about the case not covered in the show.

Amy Bradley has been unaccounted for 27 years, having disappeared from the Royal Caribbean cruise ship Rhapsody of the Seas just before it reached Curaçao on a vacation in March 1998. The documentary highlights Bradley’s case — covering the circumstances of her disappearance, various sightings, and her family’s relentless pursuit of answers regarding her fate.

The series prominently features Alister “Yellow” Douglas, known simply as Yellow to those acquainted with the situation, who was the bassist in the cruise ship’s band and whom the Bradley family suspects most in her disappearance.

David Carmichael, a Canadian diver, also mentioned in the docuseries that he might have encountered Bradley while visiting Curaçao, noting she was “flanked by two people,” one believed to be “Yellow.” Another sighting in Curaçao was reported by Navy veteran Bill Hefner, who claimed to have seen a troubled Bradley at a local bar but refrained from reporting due to fear of repercussions from his military superiors.

Between 2002 and 2008, provocative photos that bore a strong resemblance to Amy emerged on the website of a seemingly now-defunct Venezuelan tourist escort resort, as noted by a blog dedicated to finding Amy. These photos were also featured in the docuseries.

Other theories about her vanishing have been suggested, primarily that she either fell off the balcony accidentally or intentionally jumped. The Bradley family adamantly refutes these explanations.

In his heart of hearts, Brad knows Amy is still alive, and so does the rest of the Bradley family. 

“My parents and I have shared kind of an unexplainable gut feeling in this sense that she’s still out there, and I don’t know how to better explain that to people or make it more relatable, because it’s an unrelatable kind of thing,” Brad said. 

“People just don’t understand how we could possibly feel like that, and I can’t really explain it, but we do, we’ve all shared it, we’ve never talked about her in the past tense.”

Royal Caribbean did not return a comment request. Neither did Yellow. 

The FBI declined to comment.
