Mr Powell has issued an urgent appeal for information regarding the mystery disappearance.
The 37-year-old Welsh woman was last seen wearing a black zip-up gym top over a red top, black trousers, and trainers last Saturday.
A desperate hunt was launched to try and locate her after her loved ones reported her missing.
Days later, her black Mercedes GLC 220 was found a mile away in Dorchester Avenue, Penylan.
