Sam Neill reveals the truth about Robin Williams and it’s absolutely heartbreaking

The day Robin Williams passed away, the world lost a real gem.

Williams, a renowned comedian and performer who was almost unmatched, committed suicide in 2014 after receiving an incorrect Parkinson’s disease diagnosis.

It’s hard to believe that the Jumanji and Mrs. Doubtfire star will be gone for ten years starting next year. Millions of people throughout the world are terribly missing him, and his death has left a massive vacuum in the entertainment business that can never be replaced.

The extent of Williams’ troubles, which were genuinely only revealed to the world after his death, were maybe the most tragic aspect of his story. Even though he presented a brave front to the public and was always unwaveringly dedicated to helping people Nevertheless, he had been battling inner demons for a long time.

In fact, Sam Neill, a fellow actor, has detailed in his biography, Did I Ever Tell You This? The “loneliest man on a lonely planet” was Williams, after all.

The late Robin Williams’ personal relationship with Sam Neill, the actor of Jurassic Park, has reportedly come to light, and it’s enough to make our hearts hurt even more.

In his autobiography, Did I Ever Tell You This?, Neill talked about his collaboration with Williams on the 1999 picture Bicentennial Man and described how the two became good friends while the film was being filmed.

The actor from New Zealand, who recently disclosed that he had been battling stage three cancer, wrote in the book that Williams was the “funniest” and “saddest” man he had ever encountered.

Neill writes, “We would talk about this and that, sometimes even about the work we were about to do,” in passages from his memoir that were published by People.

“Irresistibly, outrageously, irrepressibly, gigantically funny” was how he put Williams.

However, Neill was also open about the suffering he perceived underneath his co-star’s humorous exterior.

“The world was his oyster,” Neill writes. “He had fame, he was rich, people loved him, and he had great kids.” Nevertheless, I had more sympathy for him than I can say.

“On a lonely planet, he was the most alone man.”

Additionally, Neill stated that Williams was “deeply depressed and inconsolably solitary,” adding that he could feel a “dark space inside from the minute he flung open the door.”

It is undeniable that Williams was engaged in combat with forces out to end his life. It was determined after his death that he actually had Lewy body dementia, despite the fact that he had been misdiagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2014.

According to Susan Schneider Williams, who wed Robin in 2011, “almost every part of his brain was being attacked.” He felt himself falling apart.

“A disease for which there is no cure,” she said, describing his condition.

“Robin’s brain suffered one of the worst cases of Lewy body destruction that medical professionals have ever seen, but his heart persevered through it all.”
