I met him in 2010 and used to see him a couple of times a week until shortly before he passed away. He was an amazing gentleman and i really liked him. We both had a love of horses. He owned a race horse breeding farm in Ocala and I have a show horse, we enjoyed showing pics of our horses. I saw him the day his mother passed away, he was heartbroken. He was really a sweet guy and loved singing. We lost a good man.
He had dementia that was brought on by alcoholism. That actually is a neurological problem brought on by alcoholism and the long-term chronic liver disease that it causes
Its is a shame. He was a very good actor with a great voice. His wives took him to the cleaners. Success can be a double edged sword, wondering if someone really loves you for yourself or your popularity and money. I remember being very excited every week watching the Partridge family show. He is very missed.
Okay, so, the mother would be the one who was in silence. Just let it rest. Move forward and let the man be at peace. He passed away and is no longer here. Rest in peace and I hope those who are left behind can find peace.
It didnt help that his dad Jack was an alcoholic. His life was doomed being born into showbiz and a broken family who didnt raise him when he was young. He didnt have much more than 200,000 so its disgusting his family are fighting for money. And he lied about dementia. He came forward admitting it was just alcoholism. His mom didnt have it. Lies
Oh ya, also he was so popular, his managers had to lock him up in hotel rooms. So boring, they graciously gave him alcohol to cope!!! How nice of them, monsters!!!😤😤😤😤
@ednaatluxton4918, did you hear what he said in this documentary? He said that he was an alcoholic. He confessed and admitted that he never had dementia. What are you carrying on about? Goodness me! Rest in peace, David Cassidy. You were loved by all your fans, around the world. ❤❤
One wife took him to the cleaners, that would be Sue. On the other hand Kay tried to save him. The music industry,and bad people using him up. Bad investments Hw was broke at 24. But he came back to us Three times. The 70s,took a break,came back in the 80s. And bam the 90s. David completely blew me away.Dont know anyone else who did that. David had demons,so sad that he couldn't beat them. I will always CHERISH,and respect him Sue is the one that got in the way of David's relationship with Katie Sue was not good for David.
He couldn't have gotten any liver transplant. "Doctors advised the family Tuesday the only way David could survive was with a liver transplant, but he was not a candidate because he would never survive surgery. The family decided at around noon to remove life support."
He was an alcoholic. Doctors don't do transplants on alcoholics. Wasted liver as their other organs are destroyed by drinking and they won't quit. I wouldn't risk my life and my future health to give an alcoholic bad father half my liver for him to destroy it in a year.
I'm sorry but if someone has liver damage due to their alcohol abuse, no one is obligated to offer up a liver. Their messed up liver is due to their own demise. And this is coming from an alcoholic in recovery.
I learned alot. His life was Rocking Roll. He was loved, good looking, nice voice & kind. Cruel that things ended so bad. I mean dementia at 67 years old. ❤❤❤
Unfortunately David lied about that. He was drinking again. He thought dementia sounded better. Back in the day actors never told the truth about their private lives. They lied about partying all the time. They wanted to appear better than that. Elvis wanted to be a DEA officer just so he wouldn't be caught with his drugs. 😮
Alcohol causes brain damage,they call it wet brain & it looks like dementia. People have drinken so much they act drunk when they are sober only sicker so worse sober.
I was young. I think we saw reruns of partridge family. I remember these small magazines i had as a kid and the popular people were in the magazines including Cassidy. I dont know much of his life. Its sad hearing about his life.
Leave him and his children alone!With all that's going on in this world,find something else to talk about.Children of celebrities should be off limits,especially when that celebrity isn't here to defend himself or on them.
Shelly Wright (aka Shelly Seashell) is absolutely his daughter. She’s actually not his only love child, there’s another, a Mexican woman. I’m sure there may be more. Think logically about all the free love in the 70’s. Probably many children of rock stars walking around. As for Shelly, her deceased adult son bore a striking resemblance to Jack Cassidy, David’s dad and Shelly’s children by her current husband resemble David. Watching Shelly on Facebook, I noticed her resemblance to David in addition to many of David’s mannerisms. It’s sad that his other children won’t acknowledge her. Maybe by now they have. She’s on TicTok now and I deleted my account. (China🤦🏻)
From what I’ve seen and researched heavy drug abuse or misuse of any kind even alcohol can onset it earlier for people. Not mild usage but consistent hard usage of things.
@@maryjane9221 keep telling yourself that it’s easy to look up. But keep believing what you want it doesn’t affect me I just don’t want other people to blindly follow your misinformation. You have a great night
This is incorrect, the young girl who died in London was not crushed, in fact she was nowhere near the front of the stage. She sat in a side section and had a heart condition. The excitement of the concert aggravated her condition and she died from that, not crushed at the London show.
“Seeking Fame” or just wanting to live his passion. Sadly parents didn’t give him the guidance he needed. Hiebert is a repeat of this sad story I hope he aligns with trustworthy support systems
LOLOL !!! 67yrs old (not age 77). Typo. Sorry. Age 67 is still okay, pretty good. He was under 18 yrs old when fame hit. Too young. 1960's and 1970's WAS era of youths Drug Culture and casual sex. Live and let Live. Come together, California Loving and more. Great to grow up in 1970's.
Did you not watch the video??? The third daughter, from a one night stand, came forward as an adult. Watch the video before posting comments. Are you saying that the story about the adult daughter isn't true?
There was some interesting facts about Cassidy in here that I hadn’t heard before. But gah! The AI generated script is circular, redundant, and even contradicts itself. The future looks dumber and dumber.
I didn't learn anything about his children from this I thought that's what the title was about. I thought it was something weird because he was having an affair with his stepmother.
