First Dates star Paddy White found after going missing for 21 days
Missing First Dates star Paddy White who was reported missing earlier this month and last seen 21 days ago has now been found.
Gloucestershire Constabulary confirmed to the Mirror that Paddy has been found "safe and well" after previously issuing pleas for information to anyone who had any information on the First Dates star's whereabouts.
The force confirmed: "Patrick, also known as ‘Paddy’, White, who was reported missing earlier this month has been located. The 33-year-old from Cirencester was found safe and well by British Transport Police in London. He is now receiving the appropriate support."
Paddy hadn't been seen for three weeks when the police issued this update and officers had said the First Dates star was "considered vulnerable".
Prior to being found, Paddy was last seen in Bishopsgate, London on June 29 and had also been spotted at Deptford Park.

Police confirmed Paddy has now been found "safe and well"Paddy's friend Callum MacLeod previously said his "heart was breaking" as he shared an emotional plea on Facebook whilst the search for his friend continues.
He wrote: "Hi all. I can't believe I'm having to write/share this, but my friend Paddy has gone missing. Please if anyone of the people I know in London know or have seen him please contact me or the link or both. My heart is breaking please help if you know anything. Can you please share this."
Last week, Gloucestershire Constabulary said in a statement: "Paddy’s family just want to know he is safe so if you have any information, please call Gloucestershire Constabulary and quote incident 532 of 8 July. You can call 999 if you are with Paddy at the time or think he is in immediate danger, or if have sighted him recently and don't consider him to be in immediate danger, you can call 101 and ask for Gloucestershire Constabulary."
Paddy appeared on First Dates in 2016 with Batley Bulldogs rugby star Keegan Hirst but the dinner date didn't go exactly to plan.

Rugby player Keegan was praised when he publicly came out as gay but his ex-wife Sara Wilson claimed he wasn't looking for love and, in fact, had a boyfriend.
She tweeted at the time: "Aww @_Paddy_White_ maybe try to date lads without boyfriends next time they may be more interesting! #awkward I should know I married him."
After his appearance on the Channel 4 show, Paddy hit out at his date and told the Mirror: "I would guess that everyone has been deceived by Keegan.
"The show should be about two people meeting with genuine reason to invest time and energy in each other. He had no intention to ask me a question or make me feel comfortable - simply be present for publicity reasons.
"Footage that wasn't included in my post-date chat shows me clearly saying I felt stitched up and that I was expecting someone to give as good as they got but it was flat from the off-set."
