In a story whose lack of shock impact is a worrying sign, NBC is reporting that Redmond O’Neal,the 24-year old son of the late Farrah Fawcett is now prepping a reality show as a ‘tribute’ to her, which will follow his battle with drugs.
With filming due to start once Redmond is released from the LA County Jail in four months, the new series will chronicle the perennial ‘black sheep’ of the O’Neal clan as he struggles to kick his drug habit, “Redmond has signed the deal that was brokered for him by his dad,” a source told reporters. “Ryan will be on the show too.”
Well, there’s a shock…Okay, maybe not.
And in a claim, the reaction to which can be praise or disgust, Redmond sees the whole show as his tribute to mom, “He wants to do this to honor his mother,” says the source. “He really wants to get better to honor her memory.”
In other news, Farrah’s will makes it clear that Redmond will only receive the money she left him when we all lost her to cancer on June 25, if he gets clean and stays free of drugs.
But that’s entirely unrelated to these plans, of course[??]
