Blind Items Revealed #18 - Reader Blind Item

November 17, 2019

The new owners of this house owned several decades ago by this avuncular deceased actor who was part of an acting family were surprised by the size of the basement and also the fact all the windows were sealed.

Calling it a “dungeon” is exactly right. The actor, who was in many movies and TV shows but most known for a TV series with a number in the title, was into BDSM which his wife knew and tolerated.  He liked to roleplay as a master with prostitutes but never went too far and was a good tipper which is why the women he paid never blabbed about this.

Wasn’t expecting that one.

Dick fucking Van Patten?

I take it the only way you make it into Hollywood is to be a freak. The normal ones are few and far between.

Well that's a different perspective on Eight is Enough.

Hollywood.

It attracts all types of deviant behaviors.

Side note: Years ago, I saw an interview he did where he sheepishly admitted that he was a landlord, and he boasted that he rented apartments to a variety of (now famous) actresses.

This makes me wonder: Did they ever participate in his role playing?

Noooooooooo he always reminded me of my dad and was my favourite tv dad.

Eight wasn't enough.

Blackbird said...

I believe it! There was just something 'off' about him.

His son seems like a major grifter (Eileen from RHoBH's husband) too ... seems to spend all day gambling while she goes off to work.

I'll never look at my dog's L.I.D. Natural Balance the same ever again! 🐕

Not one bit surprised. I hated him on Eight is Enough.
Terrible actor. Never liked his scenes with his teenage 'daughters' on the show.
Wonder what they knew? Also wonder exactly how they got their roles...
Really makes you wonder. Watch for the MeToo stories on this guy.

I just don't see it. Fwiw "Milk" Dick's son Vince probably earns more in 6 months than most people do in a few years as a champion pro poker player. I loved him when I was a kid/teenager, he was definitely hot. You gotta picture 40 plus years ago! Look at him with one eye closed! That works for me. LoL. Everyone looks better that way.

I could never stand Dick Van Patten. Would not surprise me.

I guess Eight was his safe word...

Melody the First said...

Really? You guys are kink shaming plain BDSM? Where he played fair and paid? I'm as vanilla as Mr Rogers, but I don't see anything to shame in this.

Freckles said...

He always creeped me out, did not like that show

mike m said...

Salami. White Knight before anyone gets upset.

Littledrunkinhooker said...

@Melody the first right! No one's complained and it was consenting adults. I don't see the big deal.

Do Tell said...

JFC, Dick. I used to want to be a Bradford, too!

Rosie riveter said...

Goodlord take the wheel but you're a bunch of prudes in here

Do Tell said...

Oh, please. The majority are just surprised by it because his public image was completely banal and asexual.

Sd Auntie said...

Its ok DVP. Consenting adults with pass from wifey. Nobody was hurt..

gauloise said...

I just can't

COWPIE said...

TV dads are far from being wholesome rolemodels

Mango said...

@ Daryl - Being a dom doesn’t necessarily make him a pedophile/hebephile/ephebophile. That said, he would have had to tip well. He must be the least sexy actor in Hollywood history. Blurgh.

VOMIT.

Velvet Voice said...

The guy was PÁYING TO ADULTS to suits his fantasies
He wasnt really agressive and the girls were happy with his treatment and his cash so .. ...

I see a win-win situation
