Wasn't he found working as a car park attendant a few years ago?

Hmm - wonder if anyone questioned using the Diffrent Stokes theme tune at the end of BBC coverage of the GP qualifying?

Seems the show was jinxed, although usual thing that happens with 'Hollywood' folk once their fame fades away:
Todd Bridges, who played Willis, battled drug addiction and was tried in 1988 for the attempted murder of a dealer. He was acquitted and is now drug free. Dano Plato, who played Kimberly, also struggled with drugs and died of an overdose in 1999.

He had a lot of health issues from birth.

So not necessarily one big problem, more a case of many small issues.
