Life sometimes takes us on unexpected paths. Famous TV star Frank Fritz was struggling personally.

This is his heartbreaking tale…

Longtime Frank Fritz partner Diann Bankson. His tumultuous divorce caused drunkenness, unemployment, and health problems Even though they’re apart, their time together was unforgettable.

“American Pickers” host Frank Fritz met Diann Bankson at 25. The couple dated irregularly before getting engaged in 2017. They acquired an Iowa farmhouse in 2018 and moved there together in 2019.

The relationship broke in November when Bankson “walked in” on Fritz and “found him in bed with another woman.”

Fritz mentioned in conversation that Bankson had deceived him and acquired a tattoo to remember. He wanted to marry her nevertheless.

Fritz claimed, “I was going to get married, I bought a house and a large expensive ring,” after realizing his fiancee had been cheating for 2.5 years.

Fritz said, “She is the cheater, which is why I got a tattoo saying, “Once a cheater, always a cheater,” to avoid repeating “the same mistake.” He added that Bankson “cost” him a lot.

His crushed heart led him to drink. He said that helped him cope with his breakup. So he lost a lot of weight. “I gave it my best shot,” Fritz said. I tried to alcoholize her.

After his relationship with Bankson “stung badly enough,” he put off dating while quitting drinking.

Divorce caused work losses for him. After March 2020, he will no longer host “American Pickers” on History, according to the Sun.

At 13, Christopher Reeve’s son lost both parents.

A teen falls on her back from 30 feet above at Loretta Lynn’s campground, paralyzing a 7-year-old daughter.

Tim Curry, 76, is still acting after his family did not report his stroke.

Fritz said he was sick and will return to the show after his back surgery. Fritz requested another viewing. I’m ready to rejoin the program after recovering.

Fritz said the show has not decided on his return. He did indicate a showrunner had vowed to bring him back.

Fritz has hosted the show for eleven years, but TMZ reports that he has “no plans” to return.

After declining to return to his show, his ex-lover Bankson introduced her new man, engineering administration manager Eric Longlett. She wrote about how lucky she was to be with him on social media.

“He took me to witness Elton John’s Yellow Brick Road Farewell Tour,” she captioned a photo of her and Longlett at the show. Lucky girl. Love you, babe oxo.

Fritz was hospitalized for a stroke on July 4, 2022. The friend found him on the floor of his residence and called for aid. In the 911 call, his companion said, “he might be having a seizure, I’m not sure.” The US Sun got the call.

Bill Fritz, Fritz’s father, told reporters that his son was improving daily.

His recuperation did not go as planned, according to doctors. After hospitalization, he was guarded and brought to a care facility.

Rumors say his “longtime friend” requested and gained clearance for an emergency guardianship and conservatorship on August 18, 2022.

His acquaintance was guardian and the bank was conservator of his finances.

As his conservator, the bank would pay his care facility daily charges, health insurance, maintenance, and property taxes. The bank would need to arrange transportation for activities and doctor’s appointments.

His friend had to submit a “initial care plan” to be his guardian and has engaged “in decision-making since the stroke.”

His guardian must decide on his living situation, place of residence, health, and healthcare needs; encourage participation in activities; and communicate with family and potential romantic interests to achieve this. He must also report annually as his guardian.

His documentation stated that his condition was deteriorating and that he could not make self-adequate judgments, “without which physical injury or sickness may result.”

Documents showed he was more worse than believed and unable to “make, communicate, or carry out important decisions about his own financial affairs.”

Until he can “get treatment for his injuries” and make decisions, his guardian must.

Fritz needs a guardian for his future health, the court ruled. The court ruled that “appointment of a guardian and conservator is required to prevent him from suffering immediate harm.”

This tale breaks hearts. We hope Frank Fritz recovers.
