Gary’s Tinder Bio Says He Wants Casual Fun

On Tuesday, July 9, the Instagram fan account TeenMomFanz posted screenshots showing Gary's verified profile on Tinder. His bio disclosed that he had "just moved" to an unspecified city "recently."

It further read, "Looking to have some casual fun while I get settled into the city. Would you like to join me?"

There have been reports that Amber and Gary broke up officially last month after he made contact following Amber’s declaration that he was a missing person. Nevertheless, Amber and Gary haven’t confirmed the status of their relationship, and the long-time reality star has been keeping relatively quiet on social media.

Amber And Gary Allegedly Called Off Their Engagement

“They’ve decided that it’s over between them and their engagement is off,” a source told Us Weekly. “They have too much to overcome to move forward together.”

“Amber took off the engagement ring and it’s the best thing,” they continued. “She is sad and she cares about him, but she is willing to see that he is not the right guy for her. She wants to be with someone who accepts her fully.”

The insider also shed light on the possible reasons behind the strain in their relationship, which culminated in a heated argument. This confrontation prompted Gary to abruptly leave his then-fiancée, leading Amber to file a missing person report after being unable to reach him.

They explained Gary's family had been researching Amber's past online, which caused significant issues, noting, "Gary’s family was looking her up online and looking at her past and not everything they saw online was true."

No One Knows Why Amber Portwood's Fiance Went "Missing" Right After His 'Teen Mom' Debut

Teen Mom's Amber Portwood reported her fiancé missing right after introducing him to her fellow cast members, and things went downhill from there.

This scrutiny and subsequent revelations about her history led to tension amongst loved ones following the couple's engagement. Amber's background, which includes criminal charges and substance abuse, as well as a stint in jail, was prominently featured on the MTV reality show, adding to the family's concerns.

“And it was hard for Amber because she’s been trying so hard to move past it and move forward,” they concluded.

In June, Amber reported her boyfriend as a missing person after he abruptly left with only his car keys and wallet, following a heated argument. This incident occurred just a few days after Gary and Amber had announced their engagement. The couple was in North Carolina at the time for Amber's brother's wedding. Despite Gary's sudden disappearance, Amber still attended the ceremony.

Amber and several of her celebrity friends took to social media, seeking help to locate Gary. Eventually, the police found him. However, it appears that Gary might not have been truly missing, but rather avoiding Amber, as he initially wasn’t communicating with her even after authorities located him, reports said.

Gary made his debut on Teen Mom a little over a month ago, but it remains to be seen if he’ll make any more appearances given the drama between him and Amber. However, fans would likely find it entertaining – and it could help the show’s ratings – if they indeed explore his adventures of finding love post-break-up with Amber.
