Their romance was destroyed when Diann caught Frank with another woman. Frank eventually opened up about how much the betrayal upset him and how it motivated him to get a tattoo as a painful memento.

Frank said, “I bought a house, an expensive ring, and I was going to marry her.” Finding out about her adultery was too much to take. Frank turned to drink as a coping mechanism for the pain and lost a lot of weight at this time.

Frank made the decision to stop dating and concentrate on beating his drinking issue after they broke up.

Frank too had turmoil in his career. His time on the History Channel series “American Pickers” ended in March 2020, allegedly because of health issues following back surgery.

Frank expressed his enthusiasm to rejoin the show once he healed and wanted to return after recovering. But there were no firm arrangements for his return, and it appeared that the performance was going forward without him.

Diann continued living her life, posting pleasant moments on social media with her new lover, Eric Longlett, while Frank struggled with these setbacks.

Frank was admitted to the hospital after suffering a stroke on July 4, 2022. Upon discovering him on the ground, his companion promptly dialed for assistance.

Although Frank’s son was improving, his recuperation was taking a while. Frank was released from the hospital, put under guardianship, and admitted to a care home.
