Her boyfriend could have a million good reasons to want to stay out of the press. He could work in a sensitive job, he could be undocumented, he could be dodging an ex, or he could owe someone money. Or maybe they aren't officially "together" yet, or maybe he's just a very private person!

In the CNN interview I just watched, Sha'Kyra was careful to say simply, "I'm so grateful my family was with me." It seems very much like she's protecting him, not stealing his glory.

I just saw an interview with his sister. He left the group home without permission and tried to walk to work. He was trying to keep to his routine, not understanding that everyone was supposed to stay inside, or even that the theatre he worked at was closed (though apparently he'd been told). It doesn't sound like anyone is really to blame here.

I assume her partner just didn't want to be interviewed. Not everyone wants their face all over the media.
