Thelma Ferguson hadn’t been seen since March 23.

Sheree Whitfield can breathe a little easier this Easter weekend. The Real Housewives Of Atlanta star informed her fans on social media that her mother Thelma Ferguson, who disappeared from her Sandy Springs, Georgia home in March 23, has been found.

“Thank you for all the prayers, they WORKED!” Whitfield wrote on Instagram. “My Mom has been found safe & healthy. She is with family now. I couldn’t have gotten through this without your support! GOD IS GOOD!”

She captioned the post, “The power of prayer is UNdeniable! .”

Whitfield didn’t offer any further details, but earlier had said her mom was known to take “personal vacations without letting the family know and we respect that side of her.”

She added at the time, “However, this is the longest she has gone without reaching out to anyone from the family or her friends. Right now we are leaning on God and staying positive and prayerful for her safe return home.”

Ferguson made regular appearances on Real Housewives Of Atlanta when her daughter was a cast regular, up to season 5, and made a special appearance during season 10 when Whitfield threw her a massive 70th birthday party that the full cast attended.
