Tragic news regarding Frank Fritz of the American Pickers

Sometimes life takes us on unexpected journeys. Frank Fritz was going through a lot personally, despite being a well-known television fixture.

Diann Bankson was Frank Fritz’s longtime partner. His turbulent divorce led to alcoholism, unemployment, and health risks. Even though they are no longer together, their time together left an indelible mark on them.

Frank Fritz, the host of “American Pickers,” was 25 years old when he first met Diann Bankson. The couple dated intermittently before getting engaged in 2017. In 2018, they bought an Iowa farmhouse and moved in together a year later.
Their relationship soured in November of that year, when Bankson claimed to have “walked in” on Fritz and “found him in bed with another woman.”
Fritz revealed in a conversation that Bankson had betrayed him and had even gotten a tattoo to remind him of it. But he said he still wanted to marry her.
“I was going to get married, I bought a house and a large expensive ring,” Fritz said after learning that his fiancee had been seeing someone else for the previous 2.5 years.
Fritz stated, “She is the cheater, which is why I got a tattoo saying, “Once a cheater, always a cheater,” as a reminder not to repeat “the same mistake.” He went on to say that Bankson had “cost” him a lot of money.
He began drinking to help heal his broken heart. He claimed that was how he dealt with his breakup. As a result of this, he lost a lot of weight. “I gave it my best shot,” Fritz admitted. I tried to drown her in booze.
Because his previous relationship with Bankson had “stung badly enough,” he decided to put off dating for a while while he worked on quitting drinking.
He also suffered losses at work following the divorce. According to the Sun, he will no longer host “American Pickers” on the History Channel after March 2020.

Fritz claimed that his absence was due to health issues and that he intended to return to the show once the effects of his back surgery had healed. Fritz expressed his desire to re-watch the show. I’m ready to return to the program now that I’ve fully recovered.
Fritz claimed that the show had made no definitive decision about his return. He did, however, say that a showrunner had contacted him and promised to bring him back.
Despite the fact that Fritz has been a part of the show for ten years, there are “no plans” for him to return as a host, according to TMZ.
In addition to declining to return to his show, his ex-lover Bankson revealed her new man, an engineering administration manager named Eric Longlett. In a social media post about him, she gushed about how lucky she was to be with him.
“He took me to witness Elton John’s Yellow Brick Road Farewell Tour,” she captioned a photo of herself with Longlett at the concert. I’m a lucky girl. I adore you, babe oxo.
Fritz was admitted to the hospital on July 4, 2022, after suffering a stroke. He was discovered on the floor of his house by a friend, who then dialed for help. The 911 call, on which his companion stated, “he might be having a seizure, I’m not sure,” was obtained by The US Sun.
Fritz’s father, Bill Fritz, told reporters that his son was doing well and improving every day.
However, his rehabilitation did not go as well as the doctors had hoped. He was placed under guardianship and sent to a nursing home after being discharged from the hospital.
