Dog The Bounty Hunter Not Dating 'Mystery Woman' Following Beth Chapman's Death

Dog The Bounty Hunter is not dating the woman he was spotted with on what looked like a romantic date. In fact, we've learned it was the complete opposite.

The reality star, who lost his wife, Beth Chapman, in June, was photographed on Saturday with a brunette bombshell outside of an Italian restaurant in Los Angeles.

It appeared like an intimate evening for two, but The Blast has learned it was a work event and she's actually linked to his crew.

In the picture, Dog is seen laughing alongside a "Dog's Most Wanted" crew member, who we're told does hair.

The show's cast and crew are currently in Los Angeles promoting the show, which is set to air in September.

We've learned the dinner was far from a date, as there were eight other members from the reality show there as well.

The Blast has also learned the woman is a longtime friend of Dog and Beth's and she's been around for years.

The reality star said goodbye to his lovely sidekick earlier this summer following a battle with cancer.

Dog posted an emotional message letting fans know the news.

"It’s 5:32 in Hawaii, this is the time she would wake up to go hike Koko Head mountain. Only today, she hiked the stairway to heaven," he tweeted. "We all love you, Beth. See you on the other side."

Beth's death isn't the only heartbreak Dog's faced in the last few months.

As we reported, someone broke into the family store earlier this month by smashing through the front door and targeting several merchandise items of "high value," as well as priceless family heirlooms.

We're told the burglary and robbery might be more personal than first believed with investigators thinking it may have been an inside job.

While Dog has kept hush about his future plans for dating, his daughter is convinced he'll remain single.

Speaking openly to fans on her Instagram, Bonnie Chapman got candid when someone who asked if Dog will ever get remarried.

“Nope, he found his soulmate,” she wrote. “No one can replace her in his heart. Their love was one of a kind, it made me believe love truly exists.”

Dog and Beth married in 2006 and share two kids together.
