There will be a heavy police search today so can everyone please let them do their work. Tatjana’s kids and I are hoping for the best but her ex’s mental state may not be good. So please for the safety of everyone please lay back and avoid interfering. We want Tatjana home safe, her kids and I love her so much and miss her. We need her home safe,” Gaudreault said in his post. Gaudreault said she was last seen wearing a blue jacket, grey sweatpants, and rain boots. Anyone with information is asked to call 911. RCMP were unable to confirm whether she was abducted, and reported her name was spelled “Tatiana.” "Stefanski was speaking with her ex-husband Vitali Steffen before leaving with him unexpectedly," RCMP said in its release.
