For more than a decade, the whereabouts of Shelly Miscavige, the reportedly missing wife of Scientology leader David, has been hotly debated.
Now a new report claims the 58-year-old is alive and, in mid-December, was spotted leaving a Scientology cruise ship in the Caribbean.
A curly haired, middle-aged woman – who US magazine National Enquirer claims bears a “striking resemblance” to Shelly – was photographed disembarking from Freewinds and, reveals an onlooker, observed being “hustled” into a waiting blacked-out Mercedes.
“Scientologists come and go all day from the ship, but there was something different about this woman,” explained the bystander, adding, “The covertness of it all was actually what really stood out.”
Concern for Shelly was first raised when she didn’t attend her close friend Tom Cruise’s 2006 Italian wedding to Katie Holmes.
The last time she appeared in public was to attend her father’s funeral in 2007. In 2013 Shelly’s friend, actress Leah Remini, filed a missing persons report with the Los Angeles Police Department. The former Scientologist asked police to investigate Shelly’s whereabouts, but they later confirmed they had spoken to her and closed the case, although it was never confirmed whether this was done in person.
