Chris Watts, Shannan's husband, spoke to 9NEWS and shared that the situation has been traumatic. He said that he hoped his wife and children were somewhere safe.

"Like, this house is not the same. Last night was traumatic. Last night was - I can't really stay in this house again with nobody here," Chris shared.

When it came to describing what kind of children his daughters were, the father could be seen glowing.

"Celeste. She's just a bottle of energy," Chris said. "She's - I call her rampage because she's got two speeds: go or she's sleeping. Bella. She's the more calm, cautious, mothering type and she's more like me - she's more calm."
