Anxious relatives appealed for help in tracing the former TV advertising producer, who was last seen clinging to floating debris.
Her brother Nick Eleini, who lives in Sydney, pleaded on Facebook: “URGENT URGENT!! If anyone has Angela’s address please can you DM me or phone me.”
Confusion surrounded her fate later when Angela, who moved from London to Veitongo five years ago, posted a pic online and wrote: “This is the sunset today after the volcano exploded last night.
“We’ve been under tsunami warnings today. Everything’s fine.”
The Foreign Office yesterday confirmed it was helping a number of Brits following the massive undersea volcanic eruption.
The effects of the blast, captured by satellite, were felt as far away as California where waves swept inland, causing floods.
