After Heidi responded she explained that she hadn't been on Twitter in a while and it was her school friends who told her she was being looked for.
"Bruhhh it's been literal years since I was last on Twitter and the first thing I see is a search party for my a**," she wrote.
Answering how she found out she said: "Most of the friends that alerted me I've known since middle school!! I don't think I changed much in the time span between elementary and middle school, so that's why.'"
She also revealed that she still had the blue dress and that her mother, who was also in the holiday snap, had handed down hers.
"I still have the dress!! My mom gave me hers so I wear it sometimes."
Many of their new followers wanted to know what was going to happen next, with some asking the girls if they were planning on meeting in person.
Heidi explained that she wasn't in the position financially to make a trip to meet Brianna but confirmed the two were talking via a private message.
It seemed people were hopeful they would meet as a GoFundMe page appeared on Twitter, but Heidi warned her new followers from donating.
So, are they in touch?
