Missing Model Found In New York Hospital Two Weeks After She Disappeared

Rhianna tweeted this picture of Ataui on Monday in an attempt to raise awareness about the model's disappearance. Ataui appeared in advertisements for the singer's River Island collectionAttitude: Ataui - whose full name is Ataui Deng Hopkins - has gone missing previously. 'She sometimes likes to get away but only for a day or so,' says a friend

A Sudanese model Ataui Deng, 22, has been found alive in a New York City hospital two weeks after going missing. Friends first publicly raised concern on Monday, when a fellow model tweeted that Ataui hadn't been seen in two weeks.
Celebrities including Rihanna rallied to raise awareness and find Ataui, who modeled for her River Island collection.

'If any one has any information on this young lady’s whereabouts, please call the NYPD or email findataui@gmail.com,' Rihanna tweeted. No details on Ataui's condition at the hospital have been released yet.

Ataui, who came to the United States as a refugee from Sudan, was last seen near The Attic Lounge, a rooftop hotspot on West 48th Street near Times Square around 11 pm on August 6, cops say.

But her model agency says she was with her boyfriend, Grant Monohon, 30, two days later than that. Ataui split with her husband, fellow Trump model Kortney Hopkin, known as Kortney William, 18 months ago. They are in the process of divorcing.


She has appeared on the pages of Marie Claire France, Vogue Germany and Rihanna's Spring 2013 River Island collection.
