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.
On August 18, 2022, his “longtime friend” requested and received approval for an emergency appointment for temporary guardianship and conservatorship on his behalf, according to rumors.
His acquaintance was appointed as his guardian, and the bank was tasked with managing his finances as his conservator.
As his conservator, the bank would be responsible for all payments to his care facility, including daily costs, health insurance, maintenance, and property taxes. He would require appropriate transportation for activities and doctor’s appointments, which the bank would have to ensure.
His friend had to submit a “initial care plan” for him in order to be his guardian, and he has participated “in decision-making since the stroke.”
To accomplish this, his guardian must make decisions about his living situation, place of residence, health, and healthcare needs; encourage participation in any activities; and maintain communication with family members and potential romantic interests. As his guardian, he would also be required to provide a yearly report.
According to his paperwork, his condition was deteriorating and he was unable to make self-adequate decisions, “without which physical injury or sickness may result.”
Documents revealed that he was in far worse shape than previously thought, and that he was unable to “make, communicate, or carry out important decisions about his own financial affairs.”
His guardian must make decisions for him until he is well enough to “get treatment for his injuries” and capable of doing so.
The court determined Fritz requires a guardian to protect his health in the future. The court ruled that “appointment of a guardian and conservator is required to prevent him from suffering immediate harm.”
This story is truly heartbreaking. We send our best wishes for Frank Fritz’s health and recovery.
