He’s been found! Inside missing husband Charles Withers’ new life as celeb chef in Texas

Yesterday, everyone was going feral over the viral story of Charles or Charlie Withers who allegedly completely disappeared without a trace, ghosting his wife and kids. There were loads of theories about where he’d got to, including loads of girls spotting him on Bumble in Texas.

In a post on Facebook, Ashley McGuire, Charlie’s wife said: This is my husband, Charles Withers. He loves to be the center of attention but I’m not sure how much he’s going to like this. Last year, when I was pregnant with our youngest baby, he decided being a husband and a dad wasn’t the lifestyle he wanted anymore and he ghosted, like gone without a trace.”

The internet then set out to find him and, of course, they did. Posting an update to her initial post, Ashley said: “I’ve gotten MORE than enough information to locate him. I have literally hundreds of messages to sort through, some with information and some with support and I appreciate all of them. Single moms are a special  breed, and I know a lot of you have gone through the same situation as I have.”

But despite this, we didn’t actually know where was and what he was up to, until now!

So where is Charles ‘Charlie’ Withers, the missing husband now and what is his new life like?

Well, people have been doing more sleuthing and tracked him down to be working as a celebrity chef in Dallas, Texas.

He has appeared on an episode of the cooking show Chopped and, according to the Daily Mail, he is working as a chef for Taylor Sheridan, the writer and producer of the TV show Yellowstone who has just bought a number of restaurants in the Dallas area.
