Gary and Leah became engaged right after he first appeared on the show. Then, within days of making his first appearance, they went away to North Carolina for a family event. Soon enough, he was reported missing as he took off in his Nissan Rogue. Amber pleaded for him to be found and wanted it to be known that she had nothing to do with his disappearance. They had not fought, just disagreed but were fine. He soon was found and then, the engagement was off but was this all premeditated by Gary?

According to @teenmomfanz, Gary Wayt and Amber Portwood had been struggling for some time before they finally called it quits. This comes from an alleged family member of Gary’s who dished the truth behind their relationship. The insider added this:

“Amber and Gary were fighting a lot. She [Amber] would always apologize the next day, but things were very, actually extremely miserable for Gary.”

So, is that why he ran away from North Carolina and took himself on a journey of possible self-discovery while the world feared the worst?

“He found an apartment in a different state and paid for a storage unit. He knew they were going to North Carolina for Amber’s brothers wedding and took it as an opportunity to leave. The fight that happened at the hotel was the icing on the cake.”

Well Laid Plan

It appears that Gary Wayt knew exactly what he was doing and had every intention to get away from the Teen Mom star. However, one argument may have caused him to get up and go but was he really missing? Or, is that how Amber Portwood portrayed the situation? The insider added this about Gary’s exit from the relationship:

“He planned to leave weeks before he actually did because he feared how she [Amber] would react.”

They also confirmed what Amber said when he was missing, that Gary does have mental health issues so this was not a great situation for him. What did Teen Mom fans have to say?

  • So his family knew this was his breakup plan and still involved authorities.
  • I believe this. She’s freaking crazy. And her “mental illnesses” are no excuse.
  • So when did he actually propose becauseeeee they announced their engagement like RIGHT before this 😂

So many mixed emotions but the bottom line is fans are over this story and ready to move on. Are you shocked by this or do you think Gary knew he had to leave and did what was best for him? More so, are you starting to question if he really was missing or just left Amber behind? Let us know and watch Teen Mom: The Next Chapter Thursdays on MTV.
