BACHELORETTE Desiree Hartsock was touched when handsome hopeful Brooks Forester confessed he’d been abandoned by his dad as a kid, but the contestant’s father insists there was a good reason for his disappearance.
In an exclusive ENQUIRER interview, Gary Forester, 72, revealed the stunning secret why he left his family behind in Boise, Idaho, to move to Costa Rica – he was an informant for the feds!
“I love all of my children, but I moved to Costa Rica because I got a job offer,” Gary explained.
“I am a homeopathic doctor, so I took a position down there...but I was also an informant for the CIA and DEA. I can’t go into all of the details because a lot of that information is still secret but, needless to say, it was fascinating and also dangerous.”
