The more I hear David speak in interviews the more I understand how tormented he must have been. He really was an intelligent and very grounded person who dealt with the fickle nature of fame
I recently listened to Meryl talk about the life she shared with David. She endured some troubled times but graciously focused on his talent , charm and said he had a kind soul, like no one she's ever met. Her love for him is still there
@@adrienneshelley4696 It's become all too common for people to allege anything they want once the other party is gone and cannot respond. Worth noting she called the interviewer and asked to re-record her interview and then dropped out of touch altogether. Hard to not question both what she said and why she said it.
surprized he did what he did though,,,i think he regretted it all his life there after, but why did she say it 36 years later ...what was the point in that.
I miss him so much. He was such a nice guy, at least he seems so to me. He was so talented, convincing actor and unique voice. You know it's him singing after the 1st note.
@Jacqueline Larson. You are right his voice is so distinctive, which I love. There are so many genetic voices around but David’s was so unique. He’s my all time favourite male singer.
He had too much to overcome. A broken home with an abusive father, who could charm the socks off of anybody else, overwhelming worldwide fame at entirely too young an age and the final straw - an inherited, genetic tendency to raging alcoholism. He did well to live as long as he did. He was actually a very good actor. It's too bad that he couldn't find vehicles in movies. He was staggeringly talented.
I like listening to David talk,he is always interesting. Looking smart as usual. The marriage didn't last long. He had his back to her, I would of too. It's all in his book.
His body language definitely seems off. I supposed his intoxicatingly good looks may have been a blessing and a curse because he could've had any woman on the planet but it seemed he longed for an intimacy he never quite found.
That's not necessarily true that his body language is turning away and ignoring her. You see and interpret what you want to see. After all he married her.
The newsman in the beginning is Ron Hendren. He along with Marjorie Wallace were the first hosts of Entertainment Tonight back in 1981. What a throwback! I finished Cassidy's autobiography (C'mon Get Happy) a few weeks ago. Really interesting stuff.
I just read his autobiography. This woman he married turned out to be a very dark person in his life. Now I see why he rarely spoke of her. Very sad to read about it. See how he's turned away, even his body language shows it in this clip.
How did he actually treat her! I mean he was a known liar co artist alcoholic. Who was known to abuse women so how did he treat her.. it was always a one sided story with Mr Cassidy wasn't it.
@@givemethetruthagain5701 She has an opportunity to defend herself. I haven't read anything. Best let sleeping dogs lie. I haven't read anything that stated he was a con artist. People ripped him off and he was poor by the 1980's. I think he did lie about his alcoholism but that was toward the end.
If you notice his body language, he was positioned away from her during the interview. He literally was turned at an opposite angle which I thought was odd. They were not married long and divorced.
@@adrienneshelley4696 Bashing a dead man is very unfair. Especially without firsthand knowledge. They were clearly mismatched. What's your agenda in posting the same BS over and over? Did he turn you down or something?
She said he was snotty, she needs to look in the mirror. I dont know how this couple got together, but something took place, and no i did not get to read his book.
We really shouldn't judge because we don't know, even David may not have known,the full story of a person's life. Maybe at the time, there were influences in her life, or they mutually self sabotaged their relationship for unknown reasons. I have made so many mistakes in the course of my life; that I can't judge this woman who I don't know at all.
I read somewhere where David kept marrying women who were like Jack and rejecting of him. I hope he eventually learned to love himself and to feel how deeply he is loved.
Seeing him at the racetrack reminded me that episode of the Partridge family that’s called nag nag nag he was excited then that’s how it all started of the horses & racetrack
Why the hell did David ever marry her they were so not suited and she just doesn't look in love with him at all. He could have had anyone in the world and he picks a women that doesn't love him very sad. He should have married Susan Dey who 's love for him shone on all of his life that was real love xx
Yep..I agree ..Susan..of course .she was too wholesome and didn't suit him at time ..sad I always had crush on him too when younger. Fine looking, very gifted ,talented indeed ,seem like fun ..nice man on surface ..but our darker sides cause us to loose many things that may be BETTER FOR US ..Susan, I'm sure had a physical attraction to him ..but loved him on a soul level but he was too into lust ..which unfortunately most relationships die out on ..they start wrong and end wrong ..sad .David was tormented soul most of life ..Susan could have helped if he'd given her more of chance..but its more ..not that she lost him but that she was saved even more future heartache .he never healed it seems his whole life..he chased things, people to cover up pain..but never healed enough to love in healthy manner .I get it .ive went through much of struggling with same demons. I'm almost 60 ..alone by choice ..because I'd rather be. .than be with even (one more )wrong person. Ouch hurt 😞😢💔
A lot of trash talk here about Meryl. I think that’s very unfair. We don’t know what really went on between them. But let’s not forget that David fathered Katie with another woman while he was married to Meryl. So please let’s stop blaming her for everything.
@@peejm1424 and that is a testament of how fickle fame can be. Imagine how that could torment a person where that life is all they ever knew? That’s what a lot of these folks go down these dark roads leading to their demise. The more I watch his old interviews the more I see what a kind soul he was regardless of the fact that he aged just like the rest of us do
Booze killed him. I hope he repented and trusted in Christ Jesus' sacrifice on the cross as payment for his sins, because, if he did, he's resting in Him now, as he awaits his bodily resurrection on the Last Day.
@SM t. If there is a god (I’m not personally a believer) then I don’t think David’s ‘sins’ would be something god would be that concerned about that he needed to repent them. David was a tortured soul who self destructed and no doubt caused emotional pain to his loved ones but he’s not an ax murderer or serial killer etc just a mixed up man who wanted unconditional love from his father.
those eyes got me when I was 10 years old, still do now 50 years on.

Did David Cassidy die from dementia? From Ms. Harper Stacey.
what do you think when she said he beat and kicked her so badley she fell unconcious and had to go to hospital ?

So sad that he couldn't follow his own advice. And how sad he died like the father he wanted love from so badly. David Cassidy was gorgeous.

Hi Lisa
@@markdavis1611 god loves a trier 🤭
@@God-Zin-uru yeah, this guy never quits. He's always saying hello to the women online. 🙄 Whatever 😜
Now this is a real treat, a relaxed, happy David being himself. Thank you so much for sharing, made my day.
Only saw "Joseph" once, in July 1983, and so wish I'd seen it again. A cherished lasting memory!
Thank you for posting: this is a very rare interview along with his second wife Meryl. David always loved horses.
yes he loved all animals a kind soul
Bless his heart xx such a genuine, sweet person xx
RIP handsome xx forever in my heart xx
This was an unexpected treat when I found it on YT. Never saw it before and I'm so glad you posted it. Thanks!
.... that's really a big surprise to see them booth in an interview ..... we saw Meryl until this day only on a few pics ....
I saw his pic at younger age and wow, how handsome he was once , so very-very handsome 😍 ❤ ♥ 💕 💖

His 2nd wife is on this thread...if you care to address her directly.
Exactly
Why did he have his back to her? I noticed that too.

His body language could not be more rejecting of her. Wow.
I noticed it, too. Spot on.
It was the first thing I noticed too!!
yes! so mismatched....you could just see it, no disrespect to david tho :)
@@dr0463 Do you think Meryl knows Sue is a licensed pilot and is bad at math? I can’t help it - Sue cracks me up.

Miss you so much. Beautiful man. You're the best X X
He should have somehow meet and married me from Tennessee. Such a sweet and good looking guy.miss you David.
It's so sad he passed away. He was awesome

I finished Cassidy's autobiography (C'mon Get Happy) a few weeks ago. Really interesting stuff.
I totally understand and appreciate why he wanted his ashed placed at his favorite race tracks
Saratoga Springs was where he could be himself. Every time I've seen a picture of him or a video of him there, he was happy and very relaxed.
Wow thank you this is amazing.
In the clip he wanted to hug her she didn't.
yes felt she was annoyed .
I think it was so sad how he died he was so beautiful looking whot a waste and so talented very sad indeed
RIP David Cassidy.
Thank you so much for posting . Fantastic.

@@givemethetruthagain5701 Your unfounded attacks are tiresome.Perhaps find a better use of your time.
He put her through slot if emotional abuse, he was not faithful and went through millions of her money.
He lived such a confused and unhappy life... shame

he had no dosh she did, he spent it madley all hers financed romance album he bought cars and horses all her money, shed had enough.
i liked david very much but the alchol changed him to a different person.

In his book he simply says he has a habit of taking on dysfunctional people. He did have great affection for his first wife.

Hi
🤔💞
His body language when he was sat with her was pointing away from her lo!.
She was so wrong for him, David even said it.
Adrienne I don't condone violence on anyone ,I was repeating her own words.
I like the way they met and later fell in love A sweet love story indeed ❤
Thought he'd have met some one nice model good looks thought that was his Aunt

I totally agree Sharon !!!
Exactly ! He was never faithful to any of his wives. He should've just never married at all
The woman who's name he would never speak again.....
Hi Mary
perhaps he wanted to keep quite how he beat her and she became unconcious and needed hospital treatment stiches etc back in may 86
Did she really love him in the end
i doubt it if hed beaten her like she said.
@@adrienneshelley4696 You have a serious problem. Did he reject you or something?
She definitely has a problem. If you don't like him why are you here????
She never remarried and I believe she still loved him
He married his mother for god sakes. Sad.
He not in love with her.
And she hates him now
well cant blame as he did beat her up bad and she was unconcious ?
@@adrienneshelley4696You're not well, are you? Hope you can get some help soon.
Go somewhere else
That was mistake she did not like him really she keep going back to her other man.so was not good
Do u mean she cheated on David ??? Or that she didnt actually like him ,if so why would she marry him ??
@@js-nr4wc The only thing they seemed to have in common was their love of horses.
@@js-nr4wc why marry someone if you don't like the person that is so dumb marrying a person she didn't like
There is no evidence that Meryl had 'another man' that I have ever been shown. Where do you get this from?
Rose Forshaw hi
David lost his charm after age 25. I adored him but found him insufferable as he got older. And that constant lip licking drives me crazy!!
You actually hit the nail on the head. His charm dried up like his looks. I didn't get it until you stated it. Thank you. 🙂
