When Reynolds and Anderson divorced in 1994, the court required him to reveal his debts and assets. Reynolds had debts exceeding $11 million, while his assets only amounted to $6 million. It was discovered that he owed more money than he initially thought. The IRS, his bank, former manager, and the Creative Artists Agency all demanded money from him. It was even revealed during the investigation that Reynolds owed his toupee manufacturer over $100,000.
Following the divorce, Reynolds experienced a career resurgence with films like Striptease in 1996 and Boogie Nights in 1997, which earned him an Oscar nomination. However, this comeback was short-lived, and his career soon stalled once again.
Throughout the rest of his life, Reynolds faced financial difficulties. He lost one of his estates due to missed payments and was labeled a California tax delinquent.
Despite not being completely destitute in his final years, Reynolds did not have the wealth expected of someone with his former A-list status. He spent his remaining years on an estate in Palm Beach County.
