‘Top Chef’ star Naomi Pomeroy found dead at 49 in river, days after going missing
The search for missing Top Chef star Naomi Pomeroy has come to its tragic conclusion after she was found dead in a river.
As per reports, the Portland chef’s body was discovered on July 17, several days after she had gone missing following a tubing accident.

The office detailed how people canoeing the river had spotted a body which later turned out to be Naomi’s.
