Drake Bell’s ex shares sweet snaps of their son's 2nd birthday after his disappearance

Drake Bell's estranged wife Janet Von Schmeling celebrated their son's second birthday in sweet new snaps.

The former Nickelodeon star briefly went missing last week and police had to conduct a search on him.

He had last been seen at night on Wednesday in the Mainland High School in Florida and police got involved on Thursday evening.

Thankfully, he was found safe and the 36-year-old even made light of the situation on social media.

A few days after his disappearance, the former child star's ex Janet posted pictures of their son's birthday bash on Instagram.

The party didn't seem to involve the Drake & Josh star.

Her son's birthday was Baby Shark-themed, with the venue decorated with blue balloons, table clothes, games and more.

The toddler was also dressed in a Baby Shark get-up and seemed to have a blast in the ball pit that was included at the bash.

Many children showed up to the adorable event and watched the two-year-old blow out his Baby Shark cake and cupcakes.

He had such a good time that one photo showed the little one fast asleep on his mother's shoulder.

In January, it was reported that Drake had separated from his wife Janet. It was claimed the pair were "headed for divorce".

"They had some incredible beautiful times before. He needs to focus on being healthy, and they’ll be great co-parents in the future.

"It's a bad moment in time for Drake. But he is a great dad when he is healthy and sober," a source told Page Six at the time.

Meanwhile, the birthday party came after police took to social media last Thursday asking for help in finding the star.

Sharing an image of Drake on Facebook, Daytona Beach Police Department wrote: "Officers are looking for Jared Bell, DOB 06/27/1986.

"He should be traveling in a 2022 grey BMW and his last known location is potentially the area of Mainland High School on 4/12/2023 just before 9p.m.

"He is considered missing and endangered.

"If you know where he is or have any information, please contact Detective Jayson Wallace at 386-671-5207 or wallacejayson@dbpd.us."

A short time after they shared the news he had been found safe and well.
