The search for Naya Rivera continues as those who knew her share their requests for prayers she is found alive.
As we reported earlier, the Glee alum went missing on Wednesday after an afternoon boating trip with her son Josey Hollis Dorsey out on Lake Piru in Ventura County, CA. Another boater found the child sleeping on the pontoon by himself with the actress nowhere to be found. Josey reportedly told investigators his mom went for a swim, but she never came back.
Helicopters, drones, and dive teams have been deployed again Thursday morning in the hopes of finding Naya alive, while some of those closest to her plead for her safe return.

Among them is ex-fiancé Big Sean, who “liked” several tweets regarding the continued search for the young star. While he didn’t share a message of his own amid the traumatic news, the rapper must have felt deeply concerned about her safety as he put his support behind tweets from fans who wrote about calling the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department yesterday to keep searching for Naya through the night.
Sean also “liked” two tweets, one from jeweler Ben Baller and another from Real 92.3 L.A., a radio station in LA, who shared messages about praying for the 33-year-old.
For those who may not remember, he and Naya became engaged in October 2013, but ended their relationship just six months later. It’s unclear when the exes last talked, but it would be hard not to feel for the musician during this scary time.
Rivera’s former Glee co-star Heather Morris, who played the role of Brittany S. Pierce, a character who later became Santana Lopez’s wife, did share a few words, taking to her Instagram Story late last night:
“We need all the prayers we can get to bring our Naya back home to us. We need your love and light.”
Demi Lovato, who shared an onscreen kiss with Naya as her love interest on the FOX show, shared a similar sentiment on her account, writing:
“Please pray for @nayarivera to be found safe and sound.”
You can see both IG Stories (below).
Harry Shum Jr., who played Mike Chang on Glee, also tweeted out in support, writing on Wednesday:
Praying.

Meanwhile, another alum from the series, Iqbal Theba who had the role of Principal Figgins, tweeted:

No word from Lea Michele yet, another of Glee‘s cast members, though it’s important to note the seventh anniversary of Cory Monteith‘s passing is coming up this Monday, July 13.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Rivera’s loved ones as the search continues. Hoping she can be found alive and reunited with her son.
