Elizabeth Thomas and Tad Cummins are still on the loose, and the former teacher's wife talks about the rumored kidnapper.

In an interview with "Good Morning America," Jill Cummins revealed that she is still in love with her husband, but admits that it will be hard to trust him now.

Cummins' wife talked about the 50-year-old runaway teacher one month after he and his student went missing from their town in Culleoka, Tennessee on March 13. According to reports, Cummins and Elizabeth Thomas disappeared after a student reportedly saw them kissing in a classroom.

Jill Cummins also reportedly filed for divorce a few weeks back due to irreconcilable differences. She also accused her husband of engaging in "inappropriate marital conduct."

Also, the wife reveals that she discovered his plans of leaving her after finding a note in their home. "It's kind of like a death because the Tad I knew is gone," Cummins' wife also shares.

Meanwhile, Jill Cummins' Columbia lawyer Michael Cox told People magazine that his client is aware about her husband's kissing accusation but she did not believe it at first.

Cox also revealed that his client did not notice any signs that Cummins was involved in an inappropriate relationship with a student. "[She's] still trying to get a grasp on the situation on how the person [she thought she] knew could have done this," the Columbia lawyer stated.

However, Jill Cummins still reportedly wants to see her husband return safely and wishes to see the case end up in a peaceful resolution.

Both Thomas and Cummins are placed on Amber Alert. Thomas is described as a white female with hazel eyes. She reportedly stands five feet and weighs 120 pounds. On the other hand, Cummins could be recognized as a 6-feet-tall white male who weighs 200 pounds. The two were last seen in a Walmart store in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
