Gossip Olivia Newton-John's Boyfriend Found Alive!! But Wishes He Were Dead

Truth is stranger than fiction. Four years ago in 2005 Patrick McDermott was presumed lost at sea and perhaps dead. This story would mean little if it were not for him being the boyfriend of one time superstar Olivia Newton-John who's credits include films Grease, Xanadu, and Two of a Kind, along with 5 number 1 singles.

The two dated for nine years. Then he vanished on a solo fishing trip off the coast of San Pedro. In 2006 the U.S. Coast Guard closed it's investigation regarding McDermott issuing the following statement: "The Coast Guard Investigative Service closed its case Sept. 15, 2006, and did not find any evidence of criminal action, suicide, accident or hoax in the disappearance of McDermott."


McDermott had long been suspected of faking his own death as he had massive debt and just before his disappearance he secured a second passport using his original name Patrick Kim. McDermott also liquidated his bank accounts. He clearly felt he needed to disappear as he was only a working class stiff dating a millionaire celebrity, all the while hiding his massive debt load coupled with thousands in owed child support for his then 13 year old son. Sources stated McDermott thought the world of his son and his life insurance had one benefactor, his son.


And now the shoe has dropped. He's been found by investigators living in Mexico. It seems McDermott had a motive to disappear. His debt had him almost bankrupt and owed back child support to his ex-wife, actress Yvette Nipar. Once a film cameraman, he now serves as a deckhand in the fishing town of Sayulita approximately 30 miles north of Puerto Vallarta.

In a bazaar twist, McDermott has been in contact with investigators through a third party. A recent fax sent stated: "Pat has asked that I portray to you his innocence. Pat has committed no crime. Pat simply wishes to be left alone. Let him live his life in peace and harmony. He is safe and has started anew again in a new place both physically and mentally. Stop this search immediately."


No comments from Olivia Newton-John have been issued yet as MSNBC has reported in the past that Newton-John's representatives have been following every break.
