Hugh Sheridan has revealed his connection to missing Sydney man Luke Davies and made a public plea for help finding him.
Qantas flight attendant Luke and his friend, former Channel 10 presenter Jesse Baird, have both been missing since Monday and were last seen in the Sydney suburb of Paddington.
Famous blogger and police officer Beau Lamarre-Condon, 29, was wanted for questioning by police after his ex-boyfriend Mr Baird, 26, and his new partner Luke Davies, 29, disappeared. He turned himself in to detectives on Friday morning.
Amid the major investigation, Australian actor Hugh, 38, took to his Instagram Stories to share an impassioned plea for the public to help find the couple.
The Packed to the Rafters star revealed he is friends with Mr Davies as he shared a selfie of the two of them together, alongside an emotional message in a series of posts.

He first re-shared a social media post from NSW Police asking for help finding Mr Davies, adding the caption: ‘Please help find my friend, I’m so worried.’
He added in a second poignant post: ‘Beautiful Luke. We are all thinking of you, your family and angels.
“I pray that wherever you are now, you have no fear. A sweeter heart than yours would be very hard to find.”
Mr Davies, 29, and Mr Baird, 26, have both been missing since Monday, and chilling CCTV footage taken on the night they disappeared shows them entering the back terrace of Mr Baird’s terrace house. Police believe this is the last time they are seen.
Police are extremely concerned for the couple’s safety after a significant amount of blood was discovered at Mr Baird’s Paddington mansion. Their belongings were dumped in a skip in Cronulla just after 11am on Wednesday.
Constable Lamarre-Condon, who was wanted by police for questioning, vanished in the aftermath of the two men’s disappearance after telling his bosses he was going on sick leave and turning off his phone.
