Missing supermodel Ataui Deng found alive in a hospital in NYC

22 year old New York based Sudanese top model Ataui Deng has been found 12 days after she went missing. Deng, who is the niece of Sudanese supermodel Alek Wek, went missing on August 6th after leaving a party at the Attic Lounge on West 48th Street in New York with her boyfriend.

Her boyfriend, actor and PR worker, Grant Monohon said after they returned from the party, Deng started acting 'irregular', said she just wanted to get away, and left her phone and everything in the home they shared. He didn't report her missing until eight days later.

After she was reported missing, her friends and fellow models including Rihanna, Jourdan Dunn, and Candice Swanepoel spread the word of her disappearance and got thousands of people involved in the search for the model.

She finally turned up last night at a hospital in New York, but the hospital hasn't said whether Deng is unwell or injured. Continue...

Deng was one of the faces of Rihanna's River Island collection and has walked for brands including Dior, Hermes, Diane von Furstenberg, Jean Paul Gaultier, Kenzo, Zac Posen and Proenza Schouler. She is represented by Trump Management Models in America, and by Elite in Europe. She is currently going through a divorce with fellow Trump model, Kortney William. (pictured below right)

  33. We need to start making ourselves useful and think forward in this country! Has anyone taken time to do a proper research or read up on the benefits of Nano -Silver? The fact that the So called Minister of Health Announced that the drug was "Developed by a Nigerian" shows his level of incompetence. Silver has been a beneficial antibacterial since ancient times! The Nano Silver was developed in 2008 using nano technology can yield the purest silver particles. Nano silver is simply 1/1billion (size) of silver particles suspended in pure water. With some flavour! In case you wish to ingest it. It has been used as a dietary supplement since 2011. Why America claims it is a pesticide is beyond me. They themselves use it to disinfect drinking water! Linda please kindly do your own research on this product and let Nigerians know. I bought some in the uk myself! Even if it may not be a cure for the Ebola, there is really no harm trying, as no pathogen has been known to survive in nano silver solution for over 6 minutes! It has been using to successfully treat diseases such as gonorrhoea and lime's disease to name a few! Ignorance is bliss and knowledge is POWER! Nigerians please start gaining Knowledge! Pick up a book and READ it will really help!

  71. You ppl make me sick, of course she's ugly to you because u r looking at her with your (African beauty desensitized eyes) that only consider European features beautiful. But what you fail to realize is once you leave nigeria where all you see is black skin, and come to places like USA where there's different races, you start to realize that your own is actually beautiful. It took moving to this country to see this otherwise I would've have been looking at her with the same eye u ppl r looking at her. She's a model for a reason, Infact most Sudanese are models for a reason. Because they posses the original black beauty, nothing watered down. In my eyes she absolutely stunning and I thank God for her life that she is safe. For those calling her ugly, desentize your eyes from what you perceive to be their idea of beauty and realize that what you consider ugly (your own ppl), many outside of you consider true beauty. #havesaidmyown
