Urgent Appeal to Find Missing Diabetic Teen Sophie Kaitlyn — Believed to Be in London After Snapchat Contact
A desperate search is underway for Sophie Kaitlyn, a teenage girl missing for three days, amid growing fears for her safety after it was revealed she may have travelled to London to meet someone she contacted via Snapchat.
Her mother, Sadie Parker, shared a heartfelt plea on social media, saying:
“🚫 MISSING CHILD 🚫
My daughter Sophie Kaitlyn has been missing for 3 days.
Update 16:19 – a friend has advised us that Sophie met someone on Snapchat and is in London! Please keep sharing.”
Sophie is believed to have last been in the Reading and Basingstoke area before potentially travelling to London. Her current whereabouts are unknown.
Health Concerns
Sophie is a type 1 diabetic, which heightens the urgency of the search. Family members say they can still sporadically monitor her blood glucose levels, indicating she still has access to WiFi — possibly via tethering from someone else’s phone.
