RYAN O’NEAL IS STILL CASHING IN ON FARRAH’S MEMORY

Ryan O’Neal has been making a huge deal out of his prostate cancer and of course, there’s a good reason that has nothing to do with honesty. The dramatic announcements (is it stage FOUR or stage TWO, Ryan? Make up your mind!) were well timed to arouse pity and draw attention to his new book “Both Of Us- My Life With Farrah.” So he’s still cashing in on his relationship with Farrah, perhaps because not many people care about HIS life story. On his website, Ryan modestly describes himself as an “iconic actor, Oscar nominee, and true movie star.” Miraculously, he’s not too sick to schedule a cross-country book tour, starting in New York Tuesday.

RYAN O’NEAL: “IT’S OPRAH’S FAULT THAT TATUM AND I DON’T SPEAK!”

How funny is it that Ryan “pass the buck” O’Neal blames Oprah for widening the rift in his family. Ryan, 70, and his estranged daughter Tatum, 47, filmed eight episodes of their reality show all about their attempts to reconcile after ten years of estrangement for the Oprah Winfrey Network. We have to give Tatum a lot of credit for even attempting to get along with her impossible father. The series featured therapy sessions including father and daughter but after it wrapped they were no longer speaking at all. Ryan blames not his own history as a monstrous father, but Oprah’s prying series. We think Tatum is better off without him.

REDMOND O’NEAL BACK ON DRUGS AND BACK IN JAIL

While Ryan O’Neal is fighting to hold onto that Warhol painting of Farrah that she probably willed to her alma mater the University of Texas, his son Redmond, 26, is back into drugs. He got out of his court ordered rehab just last August according to RadarOnline, and was pulled over today in Santa Monica for running a red light. Police found heroin in his car and locked him up. After around a dozen rehab attempts, we wonder if there’s much hope for Redmond. His mother left him enough money to live without working and he has minimal education. His biggest crime now is driving.

ANOTHER REASON TO BE SUSPICIOUS OF RYAN O’NEAL

We had to laugh when we heard that the University of Texas hired a private investigator to locate a missing Warhol painting of Farrah Fawcett that she left in her will – along with the rest of her impressive art collection – to her beloved alma mater. On the OWN network’s premier episode of “Ryan & Tatum: The O’Neals,” that missing 30 million dollar Warhol could clearly be seen hanging on Ryan’s Malibu bedroom wall! Keep in mind, Farrah famously left NOTHING to Ryan in her will. According to Star magazine and Radaronline, the university’s hired investigator is closing in on Ryan to retrieve the artwork.

GET IN LINE LADIES, RYAN O’NEAL IS LOOKING FOR LOVE

Ryan O’Neal wants the women of Los Angeles to know that his is now officially available for dating. (In fact, he was seen sweet talking a woman over dinner at Mastro’s recently) And there’s a bonus – his lucky dates are likely to appear on his new reality series on Oprah’s OWN network. Ryan and his daughter Tatum both want to be on TV so badly that they’re willing to try and get along while doing a show based on their reconciliation called “Lost & Found.” (If you recall, Ryan didn’t recognize Tatum at Farrah’s funeral and hit on her!) The series will feature both of them in much-needed therapy sessions and also their respective dating lives. Hence the opportunity to date Farrah’s ex.

REDMOND O’NEAL STILL CAN’T DO ANYTHING RIGHT

He’s about to turn 25 and it seems Redmond O’Neal has spent most of his life in rehab or jail. Having drug-oriented parents DOES make a difference, it seems. During his current six month stint at Impact rehab, Redmond took his first 24 hour pass and went right out to do drugs. Ironically, or not, his father Ryan has been visiting him on a weekly basis. Now Redmond has been locked up again and charged with violating probation, which could get him six years in prison. If his mother’s tragic death didn’t inspire this guy to clean up his act, we can’t imagine what WILL.

HEY, RYAN O’NEAL – MAYBE FARRAH WASN’T SO CRAZY ABOUT YOU!

We’re not big fans of Ryan O’Neal so we were delighted when Farrah Fawcett’s will became public and she ignored Ryan completely and left $100,000 to her “college sweetheart” Greg Lott. Greg was a football star and Farrah was a freshman at the University of Texas when they met. Eventually she ran off to Hollywood and married Lee Majors. Farrah and Greg reunited in their later years and she gave him the rights to sell Farrah posters and merchandise and run her fan web site. In college they had spent a romantic spring break together in Acapulco and in 2000, Farrah and Greg reenacted that vacation. In THIS INTERVIEW Greg says Redmond lived with is father (whom Farrah never married) from the age of 12 on – hardly a decent influence. When she became bedridden, jealous Ryan had Greg banned from phoning or visiting. Greg complained, but no one paid much attention until this detail from Farrah’s will indicated her true relationship with Greg.

RYAN O’NEAL’S KIDS AGREE WITH EVERYTHING WE SAID ABOUT HIM

Farrah-Fawce#58DE6FcutRyan O’Neal’s kids Tatum and Griffin validated all the claims we made about Ryan cashing in on Farrah’s death. We believed that all that whimpering Ryan did on TV was strictly to publicize HIMSELF, and make some money doing interviews. We always though he was a reprehensible person and father, and his damaged children agree. Newly blonde Tatum has admitted her father did not recognize her at Farrah’s funeral and tried to “pick her up.” Griffin told Larry King that he felt his father Ryan simply “tried to make money off Farrah’s death .” Griffin said “He stuck around to make sure he was in Farrah’s will.” (He WASN”T, Redmond got it all.) Now Griffin suspects that Ryan is sticking close to incarcerated Redmond “because he got all the money.”

FARRAH LEFT RYAN O’NEAL OUT OF HER WILL

We were happy to learn that Farrah Fawcett didn’t leave anything in her will to her longtime companion Ryan O’Neal. Farrah‘s more than four million dollar estate is mostly going to her son Redmond O’Neal, currently in jail on drug charges. Farrah rewrote her will in 2007 to make sure Redmond’s inheritance will be carefully handled by executors so he won’t use the money to fund his drug habit. Redmond will have a trust fund and monthly allowance, along with money to by a house. Farrah also left money to her alma mater The University of Texas .

WE’VE HEARD ENOUGH FROM RYAN O’NEAL

ryan-o-neal-at-movie#cut

You can’t turn on the TV lately without seeing Ryan O’Neal describing Farrah Fawcett’s tragic “last hours.” These are all the talk show bookings that were cancelled when Michael Jackson died just hours after Farrah. Does anyone really want to know about Farrah’s last breathing moments? There’s no mystery here. We are sadly familiar with the way she died and happy she was nominated for an Emmy. Ryan seems to be milking it for all it’s worth as he describes her last days in detail in that quivering voice, and compares his “loss” to his movie “Love Story.”
