Michaele Salahi Was NOT Kidnapped! She Just Ran Off With The Guitarist From Journey!

This story just went from bizarre and slightly frightening to bizarre and all kinds of AMAZING!

Although White House gate crasher Tareq Salahi was concerned that his wife, former Real Housewives of Washington D.C. castmember Michaele Salahi had been abducted when she failed to return home after not showing up for a scheduled hair appointment, the Warren County Sheriff’s Department has confirmed that she is, in fact, absolutely fine – because they’ve spoken with her!

According to a statement:

“She seemed calm, was engaged in conversation, and assured the deputy that she had left the residence with a good friend and was where she wanted to be. Mrs. Salahi advised that she did not want Mr. Salahi to know where she was. [She was] very sorry [that the Sheriff├óΓé¼Γäós Office had to be involved, but] she did not want to be home right now.”

And in an even MORE insane twist, she has apparently run off with Neal Schon, the lead guitarist of JOURNEY!

Sources close to the pair have revealed that she not only had dated him in the past, but has been seeing him again recently, went to his Nashville show last night, and is currently staying in Memphis with him!

The band’s rep confirms:

“Nobody kidnapped her and they are in Memphis together.”

Oh man! And to think that he was concerned that she was KIDNAPPED?! Geesh!

Well, between she and Tareq, she’s always seemed like the LESS crazy of the two, so she probably finally got some sense in her and took off!

Can’t say we blame her! LOLz!

Happy to hear that no one is hurt!

What do U think?? Can U BELIEVE this mess?!
