Hervé Villechaize. Don't feel bad for him. He was making $25,000 an episode. A ton of money then. The show was cancelled the season after they fired him
He was also a major pussy hound, even after he married his second wife Donna Camille (pictured below). He worked everything he had to his advantage. Excellent example of working what you got despite circumstances. He died living in North Hollywood with a longtime girlfriend living with him. He made good money after fantasy island, on many projects. He was a painter and photographer as well as actor. His suicide was because of long term pain do to health issues the last few years of his life (stated in his suicide note). He was 50 when he committed suicide.
