Is This Shelly Miscavige?

Shelly Miscavige – Unseen in 13 Years – Spotted on Church Ship

THE mysterious whereabouts of the “Queen of Scientology” since 2006 has sparked police investigations, rumors and wild conspiracies!

Now, in the first report of a three-part special, The National ENQUIRER reveals what may be the first public sighting of Shelly Miscavige, the missing wife of cult leader David Miscavige, in 13 years.

A woman bearing a striking resemblance to Shelly was photographed by The ENQUIRER on Dec. 19 as she was whisked from Scientology’s cruise ship, Freewinds, while it was docked in the Caribbean.

The woman — with Shelly’s unmistakable curly brown hair, piercing brown eyes, unusual mole on her chest, and even the same pendant worn by Shelly during her days as a church bigwig — drew immediate comparisons to Miscavige’s missing wife.

“Scientologists come and go all day from the ship, but there was something different about this woman,” an onlooker told The ENQUIRER.

“She used a different exit than everyone else and was hustled into a blacked-out Mercedes limo.

The covertness of it all was actually what really stood out.”

A private investigator reviewed the photos at The ENQUIRER’s request and concluded the facial similarities indicate these could be the first images of Shelly in more than a decade.

“Measurements match up. We believe it could be her. If the image has not been doctored, it may be her,” said the investigator, whose expertise is locating missing persons.

Our photographer tailed the Mercedes limo to the Aruba airport, where the woman and a wheelchair-bound companion boarded an American Airlines flight to Miami.
