WHERE ARE THE KINGS?

if you're as much of a fan of the king family as we are, then it's safe to say you've noticed the interactions they've had - or rather, not had - with the public this past week.

it's no secret that the family created by spencer and molly king have been dubbed one of the most interactive hollywood families - both in real life and on social media alike. so what exactly is going on?

since the 3rd of july, two days after the 19th birthday of arguably the most famous member of the family, we've received nothing less than radio silence on all of her accounts, including the popular 'thirst accounts' dedicated to her soulmates: the avengers 11.
the same can also be said for her 16 year old brother jordan, who is usually just as active as his older sister across his platforms; mainly instagram.

both siblings are also usually spotted in public near enough every day, whether together or separate. however, the number of sightings of the two this past week has remained at a shockingly non-existent number.

let's run through a timeline of this previous week, and any (now rare) signs of life from the family

- monday 3rd july: cartia and jordan are seen walking through the park with their toddler brother, oscar. cartia posts an instagram story of a shot from behind, showing her two little brothers holding hands.
the eldest sibling, heidi, posts a throwback photo of her entire family from back in 2013 - excluding the two babies of the family.
a few hours later, family patriarch spencer king is spotted, with oscar in the backseat of the car, not so patiently waiting for his wife to strap in their baby twins and get in the passenger seat. the car then speeds off in the direction of the avengers tower.

- tuesday 4th july: captain america (steve rogers) leads new york's celebrations of independence day, though the entire team seemed very mentally distant from the event. they left after just one hour.
the king family was not seen anywhere, which is deemed strange as it's their first independence day in the states, along with the fact that cartia is rogers' soulmate.

wednesday 5th july and thursday 6th july: no in-person sightings nor visible social media activity from any members of the family or the superhero group.

friday 7th july: samuel brooks, cartia's lifelong best friend, and aiden vega, brook's boyfriend and soulmate, are seen rushing off a private flight from london at john f. kennedy airport, heading straight to the tower. with them is also brooks' parents and younger brother.
tony stark's bodyguard, happy hogan, also picks up heidi and charlotte king, their soulmates, and jordan's soulmate emily carlson from the family home, where it's believed they'd been residing the few days prior.

saturday 8th july: emily retweets a tweet with the text 'soulmates are a gift we never could have even hoped to receive' before swiftly deleting it, after countless comments questiong the whereabouts of her own soulmate and his older sister.

sunday 9th july: evie king, the next oldest sister of cartia and jordan, is seen making a round trip between the tower and her family home with her soulmate, quicksilver (pietro maximoff). they head back to the tower with several suitcases filled with what we can only assume to be belongings of her family members.

monday 10th july: after the whole group of people are assumed to have been sleeping at the tower for the past week, the matriarch of the king family was spotted on the ground floor of the tower, looking utterly exhausted and with blood shot eyes. according to witnesses, she appeared to be gazing out onto the busy street in exasperated, but equally desperate, search for something - or someone.
later, her sister and niece, grace and rose, were seen heading into the tower, multiple bags in hand, obviously having just arrived back from their 8 day trip to australia for rose's new modelling campaign.
this was just three hours ago, but it was the first time we've seen the mother / daughter duo interacting with their family since jetting off down under last sunday.

and so remains the question; what exactly is going on with the king family and their loved ones?

more importantly, so begs the question; where are jordan and cartia king?
