Mob Wives star Natalie DiDonato has been found safe and well after going missing earlier this week.
A police report was filed Tuesday morning in Las Vegas after DiDonato, 44, who appeared on season five of the hit show, sparked fears for her safety after failing to board two flights home to Florida.
DiDonato has now contacted her mother Denise Fuoco via phone on Wednesday and revealed her identification was stolen and that she is safe in Nevada, per TMZ.
The star is not injured but claims her handbag and all of her ID documents were stolen.
Fuoco said it is not clear what happened to her daughter but that the family are helping her to fly home.
DiDonato's concerned family spoke with police in Philadelphia - where the star visited earlier this month - after she missed a January 5 flight home to Florida.

DiDonato also failed to board another flight home to Florida that was booked by a friend and her current whereabouts are unknown.
Fuoco previously told the publication she last spoke to her daughter a week ago on FaceTime and that DiDonato appeared 'nervous and distressed.'
Denise says they had a 'brief conversation', but Natalie 'rushed off the phone' and didn't say where she was, telling her she had to go.
She says she has 'repeatedly' tried to contact her daughter but failed to reach her, leading her to contact police in Philadelphia.
Denise says one of DiDonato's friends named Ben updated her on Monday that her daughter was in Las Vegas and had 'reached out to him for help getting back home to Florida.'
She said Ben claims DiDonato contacted him four days prior on WhatsApp, where she sounded 'distressed' and asked for money for a flight.
Denise adds Ben bought a ticket for DiDonato but that she never boarded the flight to Florida.
Ben is believed to be the last person to have spoken to DiDonato and he filed the missing person report.
Denise says she is 'sick' over her daughter's whereabouts and claimed she had 'not been right for the past month' and had been 'distant' but that she does not know what is going on with her.
DiDonato's most recent Instagram post from December 2024 showed her reflecting on turning 44.
She wrote: 'Not bad for 44. I love me some me. 44 sitting on 24’s still. (it’s not my bday…I’m just feelin myself, dropped 10 lbs…hit that goal weight)

'Getting older is a blessing, can't believe I made it this far. I'm embracing my age because to me it's a badge of honor to have made it to 44.'
She shot to fame on the VH1 series' fifth season in 2014, titled Mob Wives: Trust No One. She is the cousin of deceased mobster Frankie Flowers.
The show ended in 2016 with final season Mob Wives: The Last Stand.
