Donal Logue: Actor"s Missing Daughter Returns Home!

Today, we thankfully have a happy ending to a story that could have easily turned tragic …

Actor Donal Logue’s missing daughter is finally back home!

It’s been nearly two weeks since 16-year-old Jade Logue was declared missing, and Donal has been doing everything in his power to get her back.

The day after Jade went missing, he tweeted a description of her and what she was wearing, and that she’d last been seen at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

“Jade, we miss you and love you,” he pleaded. “Please come home. If you can see this, just know I love you and miss you dearly.”

And from there, we all got seriously invested.

In a heartfelt note he shared on Facebook last weekend, he explained that “There’s never been a more loving, innocent, cuddly child than Jade.”

“I love her and who she is and her tribe is strong,” but he added that “there are some predators who swim among their ranks knowing they’re dealing with sweet, trusting souls.”

“We want you home, Jade,” he wrote. “Whoever knows where she is, whoever may be with her — clearly this thing has become big and crazy.”

“The net has been flung far and wide and luckily, I have dogged teams from the NYPD, FBI, and others involved.”

He urged that whoever may have her or know where she is to “just drop her off,” or to get her in touch with either himself or her mother, Kasey, and “we’ll take her back, with hugs and no questions asked.”

Donal specified that Jade was missing, that she didn’t run away, and just on Friday, he made another request for her to come home.

“Jade, c’mon home, you sweet, beautiful soul,” he tweeted. “We love and miss you dearly.”

But yesterday, his rep made the statement that “Jade is now safely back home with her family.”

“Donal is incredibly thankful for everyone’s support, and especially to the NYPD, FBI and Team Adam NCMEC for her safe return.”

Donal himself tweeted “Thank you ALL for the love and support. We are good. Kasey and I wish to thank the NYPD, FBI, @MissingKids and countless others.”

So what happened?!

Well, there aren’t many details about the story right now, and we don’t imagine the Logue family will be eager to share everything, at least not anytime soon.

They’re more likely focused on Jade now.

All we know is that she was found at a friend’s home in North Carolina, and that police say she was found “safe and sound.”

And thank goodness for that.

Donal Logue Tweets to Missing Daughter: Please Come Home

The world can be a horrible place. Sometimes, all that you can do is hope for the best.

Ever since Gotham actor Donal Logue tweeted that his 16-year-old is missing, we’ve been hoping that his next tweet would reveal that Jade Logue is safe.

His tweets since that announcement have not, unfortunately, been anything so comforting.

Donal Logue, who seems to have a habit of deleting his tweets, initially shared that she was missing over Twitter.

“Missing — yesterday at 2PM Barclays Center/Fort Greene Brooklyn: my child, Jade Logue. 6’2” 180 lime green hoodie dark green military parka.”

This was a couple of days ago, which raises the urgency of Jade’s absence to maximum.

Anybody can go missing for a few hours and it turns out that they just got lost and their phone died or they lost track of time.

Now, it looks like the best case scenario is that Jade got restless or upset and is just crashing with a friend for a few days.

Usually, you don’t hope that a teenager has run away, but at this point, we hope that’s what she did.

Donal’s tweets have been very touching, as have the tweets from Jade’s mother, Kasey Smith.

But they don’t fill you with hope.

Yesterday, Donal tweeted out, thanking fans for their “love and prayers,” though that tweet has also since been deleted.

Both parents are probably hopeful that Jade is able to check Twitter and see messages from them.

So they probably want their top tweets to be directed at her.

Just in case.

Though we’ll reluctantly admit that it’s kind of hard to picture her still hiding out now that her absence is receiving this much media attention.

Actresses Olivia Wilde and Stana Katic have sent out tweets of their own in the hopes that more people will help look for Jade.

One of the many concerns about Jade’s status as a missing person is that she’s trans.

As we know all too well, trans people — and in particular trans women — are at far greater risk of suffering from violence than most people.

Obviously, the fact that she’s a teenager doesn’t do a lot to make her safer.

The news of a missing trans teenager fills us with familiar dread.

We just … really hope that she’s okay.

In the wee hours of this morning, Donal tweeted out another plea.

“Jade. we miss you and love you. please come home. If you can see this, just know I love and miss you dearly.”

Kasey Smith’s last two tweets are more or less the same.

“Jade We miss you. Your family wants you home. If at all you’re able to read this KNOW we want you home. I love you baby”

This shows how desperate they are.

And they’ve probably both tweeted these things on the advice of friends or law enforcement.

Or other missing persons specialists.

This also has to be horrifying for Jade’s older brother, Finn.

Unfortunately, this situation reminds us of when Walter Koenig’s son went missing.

That actor’s missing child turned out to have committed suicide.

Let’s hold onto hope that Jade is okay.

Donal Logue Tweets His Child is Missing, Asks for Help

Donal Logue, a veteran actor who on Gotham as Detective Harvey Bullock, has turned to social media for help finding his son.

On Tuesday night, Logue left a disturbing message on his Twitter account, stating simply that 16-year old Jade had gone missing and describing what the teenager was wearing when he was last seen in New York City.

“Missing-yesterday at 2PM Barclays Center/Fort Greene Brooklyn: my child, Jade Logue. 6’2″ 180 lime green hoodie dark green military parka,” wrote the star.

Logue initially included a photo of Jade with this plea for assistance, but the photo has since been taken down.

The New York Police Department, meanwhile, has not confirmed whether a missing persons report has been filed in regard to Jade.

Logue – who has appeared on Law & Order: SVU, Terriers Vikings and Sons of Anarchy, – is also the dad of a son named Finn.

He shares both children, pictured below with their father, with ex-wife Kasey Walker.

Many Twitter followers responded to Logue’s post, asking for prayers and wishing for the Jade’s safe return.

Moreover, a handful of famous followers who have worked with Logue in the past asked their fan base to also be on the lookout for the missing teen.

Olivia Wilde, worked with Logue on an episode of House, and Stana Katic, who co-starred with Logue on CBGB, both live in Brooklyn and reached out to their neighbors for help.

Mark Ruffalo retweeted Stana Katic’s message, while Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter retweeted Logue’s original post.

“Hey Brooklyn, if you’ve seen Jade, please let his father know,” Tweeted Wilde, while Katic added:

“Hello, community. Please see attached & notify @donallogue if you have any information.”

According to Gossip Cop, meanwhile, someone named Arlo Logue was reported missing on Monday.

The website writes that Arlo and Jade are the same person, with Logue’s son Tweeting a message in April of last year about “being trans.”

It’s unclear, of course, whether or not this plays any role in the child’s disappearance.

Logue is a graduate of Harvard University and joined the cast of Gotham in 2014. He will be a main cast member on Season 4, which premieres in September.

The actor has not written an update about Jade since his initial Tweet and his representatives have not yet responded to requests for comment.

We’ll keep his family in our thoughts and we’ll hope for good news.
