Bob Barker's Dark Journey After Dorothy Jo

0:00On April 4th, Bob Barker hit rock bottom after his wife Dorothy Joe died in 1981, even thinking about ending his own life. A former Price's right producer named Barbara Hunter shared this on a recent docu-series, saying Barker confided in her during his deepest funk. They've been married 36 years, high school sweethearts, and she was his top supporter. She got diagnosed with lung cancer right after Hawaii vacation in August and passed just two months later. Without her steady hand, Barker changed fast. He faced multiple scandals starting in 1994, including a sexual harassment suit from model Diane Parkinson that she later dropped, plus. Losers from other staff like producer Holly for wrongful firing all settled out of court. Even years on, Dorothy Joe stayed central to him. At 93, he visited her grave with daisies on the 36th anniversary of her death in October 2017. Barker held on to August 2023, passing at 99 from natural causes, still carrying that profound loss with him.
