"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."

He is described as 5ft 11ins tall, white and of slim build with short, blonde, wavy hair. Patrick appeared on a date with rugby player Keegan Hirst on Channel 4's Celebrity First Dates in 2016.

Keegan won public adoration when he took the brave step of coming out as gay publicly. However, when he appeared on the dating show, Keegan's ex-wife Sara Wilson made the shocking claim that he wasn't actually looking for love, and instead had a boyfriend.

"Aww @_Paddy_White_ maybe try to date lads without boyfriends next time they may be more interesting!" she tweeted, adding: "#awkward I should know I married him."

Paddy hit out at his date as he 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."
