London, Aug 30 : Actress Olivia Newton-John’s ex boyfriend who had gone missing in 2005 has now been found in a Mexican village.

Patrick McDermott was apparently working on a fishing boat in Sayulita under the name of Patrick Kim when investigators working for US TV channel NBC found him.

He had disappeared during a sea-fishing trip near Los Angeles, following which police spent months searching for him, reports the Daily Express.

Giving up hope, Newton-John married her second husband, John Easterling, in June last year.

The 60-year-old star was reportedly “shell-shocked” to hear the news.

Investigators said he disappeared after failing to pay his mortgage and child support, racking up debts of 40,000 pounds. (ANI)
