Malcolm McGregor had told his long-term partner and mother to his two children, Cheryl Cowie, that he was visiting family just an hour from their home in Motherwell, Scotland, before he disappeared.

Worried for his safety when he failed to return home, Cheryl reported him missing to police, but in a bizarre twist, she got some very shocking news on his whereabouts just days later.

Police discovered her Malcolm, 38, had actually flown over 7000km to the USA to marry another woman – 35-year-old Bell Valek – in Utah, according to The Sun.

It was only after he posted a series of pictures on social media with Bell that the shock marriage news was discovered.

“To say his family are devastated is an understatement,” a friend of Cheryl’s told the publication. “They just don’t know what’s got into him.”

She and Malcolm were highschool sweethearts and had been together for 27 years.

Meanwhile it’s reported that Malcolm met his now-wife Bell on Facebook.

Be has contacted Cheryl for comment.
