Fears for missing girl, 19, as pals claim she’s ‘pregnant with ex-boyfriend’s baby’ amid fears she’s in touch with DJ who ‘half killed her with spiked drink’
Celeste Smith's mum received messages from her worried pals after they failed to contact her
A DESPERATE search has been launched to find a teenager who 'vanished after discovering she was pregnant with her ex-boyfriend's baby'.
Lifeguard Celeste Smith, 19, was last seen four days ago when she left a friend's house saying she was going home to have a bath.
It understood that the case has now been escalated to 'high-risk' by police after Celeste Smith failed to go home or meet with friends the following day.
She was last seen at around 5.45pm on North Hill in Plymouth.
Lifeguard Celeste told her mum Julie Smith, that she would be staying at a friends house for the night.
It's feared Celeste, who reportedly split up with her boyfriend last month and learned she was pregnant on Monday, isn't coping, with pals warning "her head is in a mess".
They say she had been weighing up whether or not to have the child, with some loved ones telling her it was a "mistake" and to terminate or have the baby adopted.
The 5ft 5ins teen, who is of medium build with brown hair, hasn't been seen or heard from since Tuesday evening.
Concerns have also been raised that Celeste could have been harmed by a nightclub DJ who "spiked her drink and half killed her a few weeks ago".
Writing online, Emma Corlett said: "This is a long shot....but does anyone remember the visiting Plymouth nightclub DJ who spiked her drink and half killed her a few weeks ago?
"Is she still in contact with him? Innocent till proven guilty etc but who does that without a reason?
"It was such a crazy thing to drug someone and why? Long shot but worth following up?"
Her best friend, James Johnson, 20, today made an emotional appeal to find her, saying: "I just want her to come home.";
He said: "I know she has had problems with her ex-boyfriend and she found out she was pregnant on Monday.
"She was trying to cope with it but obviously she had lots of people in her ear telling her what she should do.
"She had one person in her ear telling her the best option is to get rid of it and other people saying keep it, it was your mistake.
"It is all going to mess around with her head.
"I was the main culprit, I was saying adoption. I was saying, 'You need to own up to your mistake and get on with it.' Her family didn't know until Wednesday.
"Her ex-boyfriend broke up with her a few weeks ago. Her head is going to be in a mess."
He added: "She means everything to me. This has got to be the longest we have ever gone without speaking. At the end of the day I just want her back."
More than 900 flyers have been printed in a bid to find Celeste, and a search party of around 20 people will scour Saltash and Plymouth this weekend.
A spokesperson for Saltash Police said: "Celeste, you are in no trouble. We are concerned for you and want to ensure you are okay. Please get in touch."
