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

He first re-shared a social media post from NSW Police Force asking for help to find Mr Davies and added the caption: ‘Please help find my friend, I’m so worried.’
He added in a second poignant post: ‘Beautiful Luke. We’re all thinking of you, your family and angels.
‘I pray wherever you are right now you are not in 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 AUS$3 million (£1.56 million) terrace home. Police believe this is the last time they were seen.
Police hold grave concerns for the couple’s safety after a significant amount of blood was discovered in Mr Baird’s Paddington townhouse. Their belongings were found dumped in a skip bin in Cronulla just after 11am on Wednesday.
Constable Lamarre-Condon, who was wanted for questioning by police, vanished in the wake of the two men disappearing after telling his bosses he was going on sick leave and turning his phone off.

On Friday morning, Daily Mail Australia revealed Lamarre-Condon’s phone had shown signs of life after having been switched off for hours.
Police later revealed that the constable had presented himself to police at Bondi Police Station shortly after 10.30am on Friday.
A spokesman added: ‘The man will be transferred to Waverley Police station where investigations will continue.’
NSW Police had launched a city-wide search for a white van that the celebrity chaser was believed to have been driving.
Police raided a home in Balmain connected with Lamarre-Condon’s family late on Thursday night.

Mr Baird and Mr Davies went missing from the TV producer’s $3million rental home in Paddington on Monday.

Mr Baird worked with Studio 10 for three years, but left his producer/presenter role with the show in January when it was axed by the network late last year.
