The New York Post said Ben, a close friend, first raised concerns on Jan. 5 after losing contact with the 44-year-old. 

DiDonato’s mother, Denise Fuoco, revealed to the Post that she last spoke to her daughter during a brief FaceTime call last week. During the call, Fuoco noted that DiDonato seemed "nervous and distressed" and ended the conversation abruptly without sharing her location.
