  • she was so pretty, why didn't they stay together?

  • wow...she was really very pretty during this time....

  • @diddymuck fifteen years her junior? I'm pretty sure Mike Pearce is 7 years younger than her, not 15.

  • I'm pretty sure it was May 1985 that this aired. I believe they divorced later in the year.

  • 0:17-0:20 patty is sooo adorable<3

  • the piano music at the end of the clip sounds like the music they play after they announce that somebody died. // I couldn't find the reason for their divorce. Anybody know?

  • In CALL ME ANNA she states that the final reason was his becoming a Budhist and wanting her to become one too even though she was not interested. This was all after they had been separated for a while and her bipolar pretty much destroyed the marriage.

  • Her mania (a part of bipolar disorder) was under control by the time they divorced. No doubt it contributed to their separation. The divorce was for the reason you say: Astin's switch to Buddhism and pressuring of her to do the same. This clip is from 1981, at which time Duke hadn't yet been diagnosed correctly.

  • @wattever333 the piano music at the end is just the ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT theme at a slower tempo

  • @phantomempire: I know. And that's what they often play after a report about a star who died.

  • Back then they would use only one camera for interviews and had to get reaction shots of the interviewer after the interview as over. Today they usually use two cameras.

  • Didn't they divorce soon there after this?

  • yea about a year after

  • This was from 1981.

  • John was seen without his beard on Super Password on the week on 12/3/84-12/7/84.

  • He was so cute as Gomez Addams!!! I love him.

  • Isn't Sean Astin their son?

  • Yes he's their son. Sean Astin isn't biologically John Astin's son though.  Sean took a paternity test in the 90's and he found out he was the son of Michael Tell who Patty had a 13 day marriage that was annulled.

  • @lostindreams3 So it was the husband of 13 days who was the father? I remember that at one time it was thought that Desi Arnaz JR (Lucilles SON) was the father.
