Singh also launched a GoFundMe campaign to facilitate their search.

“Hello, my name is Danielle and my cousin Chanel is missing. She lives in the Playa Vista neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. Our last contact with her was on October 30, 2024,” we read in a description. “Two social checks were carried out on November 7 and two other social checks on November 8. She wasn’t in her apartment. Chanel is an officially missing person in California.

According to Singh, all of the actress’ belongings were still at her home on Sunday (November 10).

“The only items we haven’t located are his phone and laptop. She doesn’t go anywhere without her little dog, who was also left behind,” the GoFundMe reads. “She doesn’t have her vehicle either because it is parked in her garage. She would NEVER go anywhere without telling her mother or myself. We noticed on November 10 that her husband had a broken lip and marks and scratches on his neck and arms. The police were called on November 10 and took photos of his injuries, which he did not have until two days ago during the last welfare check.

Banks’ husband allegedly told Singh that his wife “does not want to be found” and “will contact her when she is ready.”

“He claims he doesn’t know where she is, he says he hasn’t seen or heard from her since November 7, but he never called the police to tell them she was gone,” the GoFundMe message added. “I’m creating this GoFundMe because we need to hire a private investigator. The LAPD told us, because there are no signs of foul play and her husband didn’t commit any crime by withholding information, they can’t do anything until they ‘have no evidence or probable cause to arrest him.

Banks has appeared on various television shows including original Gossip Girl And Blue blood (where she was credited as Chanel Farrell).
