His Life Is Very Different Now

October 15, 2020 Blind Gossip

SOLVED!

[Blind Gossip] This male actor was one of the stars of a popular sitcom from the 1990s.

Recently we heard a rumor that he had passed.

Although the rumor was meant to be satire – and was not true at all – some people on social media ran with it and it spread around the Internet.

Given how much our actor has struggled in the past few years, having something crazy happen to him did not seem out of the realm of possibility.

Let’s talk about where he was a couple of years ago. Then we will tell you where he is now.

We told you couple of years ago that our funny actor was in trouble.

After a serious legal incident, he took on a career as a stand up comedian.

However, he wound up cancelling many shows because he couldn’t even fill a small venue. His career was not looking good.

His career is non-existent. He has not booked a TV or film gig in a few years.

He was out of money.

He gave up his apartment because he couldn’t pay rent.

He was also having trouble staying sober.

Fast forward to today. How is he doing?

We happen to know!

He moved in with his parents in [town in Florida] in May. It’s a nice middle-class neighborhood. We run into him and his [parent] in the grocery store occasionally. He seems sober and normal. His [parent] is happy he is living with them full time.

It’s not exactly the life of a TV star.

But at least his family was willing to save him, he has a roof over his head, he has food in his belly, and he seems sober and happy.

With the crazy, drama-filled life our actor has led in the past, those are probably very good things!

    In the commentary on a SBTB DVD , they say Dustin Diamond went to Disneyland literally every single weekend with his family his entire life. My guess is Orlando where he would have a whole bunch of parks to play in. My parents live in The Villages nearby so I’ll have to keep an eye out when travel is safe again. Mark Paul Gosselar is my forever #1!

    Dustin Diamond of Saved by the Bell, although he has had a bit of work in the past few years. Everything else fits him. And it sounds like that rumor about his death actually helped him regain some popularity, as people were upset to think he had passed away. And I think it’s great that he lives with his parents right now, considering COVID plus his health issues. Hope he thrives and puts his career back on track.

    Fave 90s sitcom: Seinfeld. Great show, still hilarious!

    Dustin Diamond. It was rumored that he was killed in a prison riot or something like that. He’s definitely had money trouble and run-ins with law enforcement.

    I liked ‘Seinfeld’ and ‘Home Improvement’. My favorite sitcoms of that general timeframe were ‘Golden Girls’, ‘Designing Women’, ‘Frasier’ and ‘King of Queens’. I still watch reruns, and still think the shows are funny. They’re also a great break from political/social justice/politically correct themes of shows today.

    I’m glad for anyone who overcomes their addiction to drugs and alcohol. I hope he stays sober.

      I completely agree. Sometimes I look people up I haven’t heard from for a long time and I’ll be pleasantly surprised when I read they’re behind the camera now, teaching theater or have moved on to a new career. I always think good for them and it seems like in many cases they wanted a solid career to support their family or needed to get out of Hollywood altogether to focus on their sobriety and/or mental health.

    Dustin Diamond.

    I met Dustin when he came to my university to do a show in the early 00’s. I believe his show then was titled, “Shaved by the Balls.” I couldn’t not go. When he said the name of his show during his routine, I yelled out, “lets see your balls” (real classy, I know). He then asked to see my boobs. Ha. (No parts were exposed on either end). He seemed very unhappy during his routine – and didn’t have a lot of good things to say about his time on SBTB. I hope he is doing…
