Teen Mom star Amber Portwood's fiance Gary Wayt, 39, has been spotted in Oklahoma, over 900 miles away from where he was last seen in North Carolina.

Video footage shows Wayt on June 11, police confirm. 

Wayt was reported missing by the Bryson City Police Department on June 11 after his fiancée Amber Portwood said he left their home on June 9.

Portwood joined a YouTube livestream to discuss the situation, saying she and Wayt's parents are worried and scared. "His parents, everybody is very worried. I am worried," Portwood said. "We are very scared right now."

She claimed Wayt was last seen alone at a local Walgreens.

Portwood refuted rumours of a big argument before Wayt's disappearance, "It was emotional because it had something to do with the fact of his parents being Vietnamese and me being who I am," Portwood explained. "He was very upset about this, I was upset. We do not yell at each other, we do not hurt each other."

The police department is looking for Wayt, who weighs 205 lbs., is bald, and has brown eyes. He owns a grey 2009 Nissan Rogue SUV.
