The family of a 23-year-old Texas woman who vanished while eight months pregnant confirmed she was found dead Thursday in southwest Houston.

Ashanti Allen, who had a high-risk pregnancy, disappeared Friday after leaving her home, according to a report from affiliate FOX 26 Houston.

Police said a body was found Thursday, which Allen’s family confirmed was hers, according to the outlet.

Allen’s father, Edward, told reporters he has been numb ever since learning his daughter’s fate.

“We [were] hoping for the best, but now we’ve heard the worst,” Edward Allen said. “I don’t think I even processed the fact that my daughter is gone. … I love my baby girl. Only girl, my baby girl. And then she had my only baby grandson.”

He said the 23-year-old graduated from community college and was working at a hospital.

“Her life was going somewhere,” Edward Allen said. “She expecting a baby. I mean, she had baby clothes. I was about to go buy a car seat and stroller and all this other stuff. I mean, she’s just a normal girl, pretty girl, working and trying to live life.”

He added that he believes his daughter was kidnapped before her death.

Video taken at the scene showed authorities scouring a taped-off area, seemingly looking for evidence.

Edward Allen pleaded with the public to call the police if they have any information about what happened to his daughter.

The daughter of a woman who remains missing in the Bahamas lashed out against her stepfather after arriving on Great Abaco Island Thursday.

Karli Aylesworth previously slammed her stepfather, Brian Hooker, who was the last person to see her mother, Lynette Hooker, alive on April 4. Brian said Lynette fell overboard from their dinghy around 7:30 p.m. as the pair motored toward their sailboat, which was anchored off Elbow Key.

Brian was arrested by the Royal Bahamas Police Force April 8 and spent five days behind bars while police investigated Lynette’s disappearance. He was released Monday night without being charged with a crime.

On Tuesday morning, he told several news outlets he would remain in the island nation to search for Lynette but jetted off Wednesday for the United States, landing in Atlanta in mid-afternoon, a source familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital.

“I think it shows his character. He somehow lost my mom at sea and cries on camera saying he’ll never stop searching, then leaves the next day,” Aylesworth told the New York Post upon her arrival to the town of Marsh Harbour, close to where her mother went missing.

She deplaned at the tiny Leonard Thompson International Airport in Marsh Harbour with her boyfriend, Steve Hansen. They were reportedly met by a uniformed police officer before taking off in a taxi.

Hooker’s attorney, Terrel Butler, said he was going to visit Hooker’s mother.

“Following his release from custody without charge, Mr. Hooker is now facing another emergency. In addition to the trauma of his wife of 25 years being missing, Mr. Hooker has received urgent word of his mother’s grave illness,” Butler told NBC News. 

“He has traveled to [the] United States of America to be at her bedside during this critical time.”

After her mother’s disappearance, Aylesworth told Fox News Digital she was aware of “prior issues” with Brian’s behavior.

“There have been prior issues brought to my attention, which may be important for any thorough investigation. If this truly was an accident, I can understand and live with it,” Aylesworth said. “However, there needs to be an intensive review of the facts and circumstances of this tragic incident before that can be determined.”

Aylesworth said she has been “privy to very little information,” adding her “sole concern is to find out what happened to my mother and make sure a full and complete investigation is performed into her disappearance.”

She also told “Fox and Friends” that something “doesn’t add up” with her mother’s disappearance, and accused Brian of having a “history of domestic violence” and anger issues.

Meanwhile, Bahamian police said their search for Lynette was coming to an end as early as Thursday after analyzing “tide, drift and wind” and deciding there was nowhere else to look. A U.S. Coast Guard investigation remains ongoing.

Brian has maintained he had nothing to do with Lynette’s disappearance and that it was purely an accident driven by windy conditions and choppy seas.

“I am heartbroken over the recent boat accident in unpredictable seas and high winds that caused my beloved Lynette to fall from our small dinghy near Elbow Cay in the Bahamas,” he wrote. 

“Despite desperate attempts to reach her, the winds and currents drove us further apart. We continue to search for her, and that is my sole focus.”
