He made the trip to the Spaniards alone after staying in Ibiza for a week, arriving in town around 7pm.
The rugby player turned reality star starred on X Factor: Celebrity in 2019 with fellow rugby players Ben Foden and Thom Evans as part of the Try Star team.
In 2020, she starred in the E4 dating series Celebs Go Virtual Dating.
Levi made history that year when he became the first rugby union player to come out as bisexual while still playing.
The former Bath winger suffered from depression and had been on holiday following a knee injury.
Here are the various theories about Levi’s disappearance.
THEY OWE MONEY TO THE DRUG GANG
In recent days, it has emerged that Levi may have been lured to Barcelona by Somali criminals, to whom he owed money.
The amount he owed was estimated at around €115,000 – almost £102,000.
A private investigator helping the family revealed that Levi may have fled his apartment two years ago to escape a drug gang.
“There is a significant link between a Somali drug lord and another Somali drug gang in Barcelona and it is alleged by sources that he owed a significant debt,” Gavin Burrows told Sun Online.
“This started two years ago, with Levi running from his apartment as he believed he was in danger.”
POISONED
Such was the amount Levi owed, it is claimed he feared he would be poisoned by the gang.
“He had adopted a frenzied lifestyle and was in a very delicate state,” an unnamed member of the private detective team he told La Vanguardia newspaper.
“The truth is he was sure he was being hunted. In fact he was convinced that they had tried to poison him on one occasion.’
He drowned at sea
At the time Levi disappeared, a person appeared in the sea, asking if there was a missed opportunity to locate him.
“Davies’ friend who lives in Eivissa also pointed out that a day later cruise ship workers reported that a person was overboard,” said the member of the detective team.
“Shortly after, search operations were suspended because no one was missing on board, neither crew nor passengers.”
EXHAUSTED
Levi’s foster mother Susanne Balfour confirmed she had made a blackmail threat in a video posted on social media, which has since been deleted.
“He might just be scared, he said in that video that his life was in danger, I don’t know if he’s running from something, I just don’t know,” he told Sky News.
“Levi said he had to leave Ibiza, when his friend asked why he just said he had to leave.
“He was actually on a ship from Ibiza bound for Barcelona, but that was the last she heard from him.”
Burrows claimed his investigations confirmed this was the case, but added: “We have yet to determine for sure what is going on.”
