Missing August: Osage County actress Misty Upham's body has possibly been found, TMZ reports. The actress had been missing since Oct. 5.
According to TMZ, Upham's family said one of their search teams found a body in a ravine near Seattle's White River on Thursday, Oct. 16. Although they have yet to reach the body because of a steep terrain, searchers believe it's Upham.
Local news station KIRO7 previously reported that Upham's father claimed she was acting "suicidal" in recent weeks. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, however, her father said: "I don’t think she would have taken her own life. I don’t want to think she is dead."
TMZ reports police are investigating the situation as the story develops.
