After a nerve-wracking week, it was announced last Friday that Gary White, 39, and the missing fiancée of Teen Mom star Amber Portwood, 34, had been found again. However, fans were left with many questions: How was he found and did Amber have anything to do with his disappearance or not? Thanks to new details shared by the police, they are now getting answers to some questions.
“I never touched him wrongly and he never touched me.”
According to the North Carolina Bryson Police Department, Gary called police via an anonymous phone number. After all, he had left his own phone at home before he disappeared. Gary told police he was safe and asked them to stop the search. Police then asked “a number of pointed questions” to confirm they were actually speaking to Gary, reports said TMZ.
After he was able to answer all the questions without any problems, the police were able to confirm Gary’s identity and closed the missing persons case. Police also confirmed that they did not suspect from the beginning that Gary was in danger or suicidal, two possible scenarios that were circulating on social media. Although Gary has not confirmed his current location to police, several witnesses have seen him in various places. It is not clear whether he has now regained contact with his fiancée, Amber, who was very worried.
Amber announced early last week that Gary was missing. He “just disappeared” without taking his phone with him. He only had a wallet and keys with him. Since they had a heated conversation before he disappeared and she had no idea where he went, Amber decided to call the police. Rumors quickly spread that Amber herself had something to do with the disappearance, as she had been imprisoned in the past for assaulting her ex-boyfriend. Amber strongly denied these rumours.
The timing of Gary’s disappearance is startling: just a few weeks ago he proposed to Amber. the teen MomThe star confirmed last week that their relationship is strong and healthy. “We are very much in love. This man asked me to marry him. I have never touched him wrong and he has never touched me. We don’t even yell at each other.”
