When did Ralph disappear?

The big story about Amanza Smith’s love life though isn’t her messy divorce with Ralph Brown. Instead, it’s about Ralph’s disappearance that has left Amanza scrambling to support her children 100% alone. 

Since August 26th, 2019, Amanza Smith has not seen her ex-Ralph. Last time she saw him was at their children’s school, when he was dropping the kids off. Amanza hasn’t been able to contact Ralph at all, and filed a missing persons report two months after his disappearance. 

After investigating his disappearance, police determined Ralph wasn’t actually a missing person, as there was no signs of him being taken forcefully, or foul play.

What happens now?

It’s been over a year since Amanza Smith last saw her ex-husband, so she’s determined to get full custody of the kids in response. Since Ralph Brown is out of the picture, nor is he paying child support, Amanza doesn’t want to give Ralph the option to come back into the kids’ lives.

Of course, any custody battle is a long, painful court case. But it’s especially such when one of the two parents is MIA. This won’t stop Amanza fighting through, as she is putting whatever extra money she can into calling herself the sole guardian of Noah & Braker.
