THE parents of teenager Shelley Pratt – who was found after going missing for three months – have finally spoken to their daughter.
However her parents, Lisa and Tony, have yet to be reunited with her, as she is still being questioned by social services about the nature of her disappearance.
Lisa told the Advertiser: "The social services have told us there is still a lot of stuff to sort out with her, so we haven't been able to get her home yet.
"I got to speak to her on the phone and she told me she misses us all, she loves us and she can't wait to come home.
"I'm sleeping a lot better now since she was found; knowing she is safe is such a relief."
Shelley, 14, from South Norwood, went missing after school on November 8 and was not seen until February 5, when she was spotted in Croydon town centre. Since then she has been kept with social services, as she goes through a lengthy debriefing process.
