MrWonderful 480 Posted March 30, 2020 2 hours ago, Desmond Tutu said: been very quiet as of late https://www.yourtango.com/2020331393/is-ryan-oneal-dying There's really nothing new in this, but I have him on my top 50 list for a reason. With that history of drug abuse, the history of health problems, and as frail as he's been for a while, I think he's a solid under-the-radar bet. Plus his son, Patrick O'Neal (who is a Los Angeles-area sports reporter), has been unafraid recently to say how much he loves his dad and there was that article in the LA Times last year about the gym they opened together (they recently had to close it down due to the coronavirus outbreak). I don't know, it just feels like Patrick doesn't want the world to forget his father, and maybe that's because he doesn't have much time left. Maybe I'm misreading that but I just have a hunch. I also failed to mention that Patrick has campaigned this year on Twitter to get his father a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He says his father doesn't care one bit but that he's the one that cares about it. Could be that he wants his dad to get that recognition while he's still alive. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mollyafox 455 Posted February 13, 2021 Has received a star of The Hollywood Walk of Fame. His star is next to the star of his late partner, Farrah Fawcett. http://www.justjared.com/2021/02/12/ryan-oneal-gets-star-on-hollywood-walk-of-fame-next-to-late-love-farrah-fawcett/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gooseberry Crumble 5,341 Posted February 26, 2021 https://www.instagram.com/p/CLvbfgrgn-I/?igshid=ucy6ttpb7mc8 A recent photo of Ryan posted by his son on Instagram. I think he is rather frail looking. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,037 Posted December 7, 2022 Hmm, according to this he is "thriving": https://www.survivornet.com/articles/ryan-oneal-prostate-cancer/ Seems active on Instagram (thank gawd it's metric, imagine Instaounce). However, still early 80s with a health history, so decide at your leisure whether he is on your team next year. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

prussianblue 1,027 Posted December 8, 2023 Coincidentally I was reading this article about how his film career died only this morning. I know him mainly through Barry Lyndon and being Tom Scavo's dad in Desperate Housewives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Watcher 317 Posted December 9, 2023 A Peyton Place thread (unless one is languishing in the depths of Deathlist) would be useful. So many big names at the time (most gone now) & young aspiring actors such as Ryan O'Neal, Barbara Parkins, Leigh Taylor Young & Mia Farrow. Apparently Mia's husband at the time was Frank Sinatra & he made it clear to the production team & his wife that he did not want her committed to a long running series - she was quickly written out despite being an integral character! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
