The mystery surrounding Olivia Newton-John’s ex Patrick McDermott, who vanished at sea

Olivia Newton-John had a number of lengthy relationships throughout her life — but none more headline-grabbing than her ex Patrick McDermott. Tragedy struck the Australian star’s life when her on-off boyfriend of nine years mysteriously vanished on an overnight fishing trip off the California coast in 2005 soon after they called it quits.A Coast Guard investigation at the time concluded that the American cameraman had likely drowned and he has been presumed dead ever since. But conspiracy theorists have long claimed that McDermott may have faked his own death.Numerous reports alleged he was living in Mexico with a new girlfriend, while some suggested he’d gone off the grid to dodge his tax debts.A private eye alleged in 2010 that he’d tracked down the cameraman living on a boat off the coast of Acapulco — and that he just wanted to be left alone.
