Drake Bell Seen Huffing on Balloon Weeks After He was Reported Missing

Weeks after he was found safe after initially being reported as “missing and endangered,” former child star Drake Bell was seen huffing on a balloon in his car.

Per TMZ, the actor and musician was spotted sitting in his car outside of his home in Los Angeles sucking on what appeared to be an inflated balloon. Video of the moment was captured, while photos showed him with a canister that could potentially be filled with nitrous oxide. He was previously spotted huffing on a balloon alongside his son Wyatt Bell, who was born in 2021, back in December 2022.

Bell seems to be going through a tough time at the moment. Earlier this month, the Daytona Beach Police Department said that Bell was considered “missing and endangered.” He was found safe not long after, and he shared a tweet to let his fans know that he was doing okay. “You leave your phone in the car and don’t answer for the night and this?” he wrote alongside a laughing emoji. However, police reportedly received a call from a “celebrity” who planned to get “drunk” and “hang himself” following an argument with his wife.

In legal documents filed last week, his estranged wife Janet Von Schmeling, 28, filed for divorce from the 36-year-old. In the docs, she listed “irreconcilable differences” as the primary reason for the divorce. She is seeking spousal support and primary legal and physical custody of their son. She wants Bell to receive visitation rights, however.
