Level 2 · 6 days agoRyan getting all the blame here but Farrah putting him in that abuse program for 18 months was just as damaging. That part gets glossed over way too fast.
Isaac
Level 9 · 6 days agoRyan was literally handing Redmond cash for drugs while pretending to be the grieving dad. Griffin spilled ALL of that on Larry King.
Barnaby
Level 3 · 6 days agoRyan O'Neal really was arrested with Redmond in 2008 for meth. Both of them. Father and son. Confirmed.
