He has one baby he hasn’t seen in over a year, and one he’s never met. He’s moved somewhere out of state and changed his phone number.

Now the post has gone viral and everyone has been doing their best Sherlock Holmes impressions, there are a lot of theories about what happened to him and a number of leads on the whereabouts of the missing husband.

So, this is everything we know and all the theories about the viral missing husband Charlie story:

He’s been spotted on Bumble in Dallas

One of the first theories is that he is in Dallas, Texas. This is assumed after a number of people commented saying they matched with him on Bumble there. In the Texas-based “Are we dating the same guy?” Facebook group one woman said she matched with him a few weeks ago and included screenshots of his profile.

His Bumble profile specifically says that he is British and a chef, something we know to be true from his wife.

The wife has been hearing from his new girlfriends

Ashely was asked a lot of questions about why she assumed there was no foul play involved and was sure about his welfare, but allegedly she has been hearing from his new girlfriends that he’s been dating. One TikToker who has been diving into the case said: “It turns out she knows he’s alive and well because she’s been hearing from his girlfriends this whole time.”

She then posted a screenshot of her Facebook comment which confirms this. It reads: “Yeah, I’ve had a few girls he’s been involved with reach out to me after they found out through social media or however else. They’ve been pretty spread across the country though. But yes, I’m willing to bet he’s alive.”

But she found him!

And finally, the final update we were all waiting for, Ashely updated her original post and confirmed she now has enough information to find her husband. She said: “Guys… This is absolutely insane. I figured maybe someone in my area was still in touch with him but I absolutely did not expect this.

“I’ve gotten MORE than enough information to locate him. I have literally hundreds of messages to sort through, some with information and some with support and I appreciate all of them. Single moms are a special breed, and I know a lot of you have gone through the same situation as I have.

“Please know I truly do not wish him any type of ill will. I sincerely appreciate all of your support, but please do not make threats, spread hate, or try to go out and locate him. Truly I only want to see this situation resolved so me and my children can restart our lives and fix the damage done. At the end of the day I get to come home to my babies and be their mom, so I think I win regardless. Also that karaoke video that everyone’s sending….I don’t think that’s actually him. So I apologize to whoever it is for your karaoke being blasted all over the internet. You did a great job though!  Thank you again to everyone.”
