Levi Simeon Davis [1] (born 12 March 1998; disappeared 29 October 2022) is an English rugby union player who played as a winger. He is currently missing; at the time of his disappearance, he was a player with Worthing Raiders in the National League 2 South. He is suspected to have drowned.
Davis made his debut for Bath in 2017. [2] He made his first appearance for Bath in Premiership Rugby in October 2019 against the Bristol Bears. [3] In January 2020, Davis joined Ealing Trailfinders on loan for the remainder of the 2019–20 RFU Championship, making three appearances before the season was curtailed by the COVID-19 pandemic. [4] In August 2020, having departed Bath, he joined Ealing on a permanent transfer signing a two-year deal. [5]
Levi joined Worthing Raiders in the autumn of 2021 making his debut in the away fixture at Henley Hawks. He scored his first try in a 28–26 defeat at home to Hinckley a week later.
Davis took part in The X Factor: Celebrity in late 2019, as part of the group Try Star, along with fellow rugby union players, Thom Evans and Ben Foden. They placed fifth in the competition. [6] [7]
In September 2020, Davis came out as bisexual. This made him the first professional rugby union player to come out as bisexual while still playing. [8]
He released his debut single, "With Me", under the name LEDA on 14 September 2022. [9]
In November 2022, Davis was reported missing after his former rugby club issued an appeal for information on his whereabouts, with him last being seen at a pub in Barcelona, Spain on 29 October. [10] His passport was located at a Barcelona port in November 2022. [11] He is suspected to have drowned in the sea near the city's commercial port, as a person matching his description was found drowning around the time of his disappearance. The attempt to rescue the person failed and the body was not recovered. [12]
