Frank Fritz, star of “American Pickers,” was placed under guardianship following a negative interaction

Sometimes life takes us on journeys we never imagined. Although he was a well-known television fixture, Frank Fritz was going through a lot personally.

Longtime partner of Frank Fritz was Diann Bankson. His tumultuous split from her resulted in alcoholism, unemployment, and even a health risk. Even though they are no longer together, their time spent together has left a lasting impression on both of them.

When he first met Diann Bankson, “American Pickers” host Frank Fritz was 25 years old. The pair dated intermittently and got engaged in 2017. They purchased an Iowa farmhouse and moved in together a year later, in 2018.

However, their relationship deteriorated in November of the same year after Bankson claimed to have “walked in” on Fritz and “found him in bed with another woman.”

In a conversation, Fritz disclosed that Bankson had betrayed him and had even gotten a tattoo to remind him of it. But he said that he still desired to wed her.

When Fritz learned that his fiancee had been seeing someone else for the previous 2.5 years, he remarked, “I was going to get married, I bought a house and a large expensive ring.”

Fritz stated, “She is the cheater, which is why I got a tattoo saying, “Once a cheater, always a cheater,” to serve as a reminder to not make “the same mistake again.” He continued by saying that Bankson “cost” him a lot of money.

He made the decision to put off dating for a while while he kicked his drinking habit because his previous relationship with Bankson had “stung badly enough.”

He also experienced losses at work after the separation. The Sun claims that after March 2020, he stopped serving as the host of “American Pickers” on the History Channel.

Fritz claimed that his absence was due to health issues and that he intended to return to the show after his back surgery had healed. I want to watch the show again, Fritz said. Now that I’ve fully recovered, I’m prepared to return to the programme.

Fritz claimed that there had been no clear decision made by the show regarding his return. But he did mention that a showrunner had contacted and promised to bring him back.

Despite the fact that Fritz has worked on the programme for ten years, according to TMZ, there are “no plans” to have him serve as a host once more.

His ex-lover Bankson unveiled her new man, an engineering administration manager named Eric Longlett, in addition to declining to return to his show. She gushed about how fortunate she was to be with him in a social media post about him.

On July 4, 2022, Fritz was admitted to a hospital for a stroke. His friend had discovered him on the floor of his home and called for help. The US Sun was able to obtain the 911 call where his friend said, “he might be seizuring, I’m not sure.”

However, his recovery was not as solid as doctors would have liked. Upon his release from the hospital, he was sent to a nursing facility and placed under guardianship.

According to reports, his “longtime friend” filed an emergency appointment for temporary guardian and conservatorship for him on August 18, 2022 which was then approved.

His acquaintance was named as his guardian, and the bank was given the responsibility of managing his finances as his conservator.

As his conservator, the bank would be in charge of making all payments to his care facility, including those for daily costs, health insurance, maintenance, and property taxes. He would need access to suitable transportation for activities and doctor’s visits, which the bank would have to make sure of.

In order to be his guardian, his friend had to submit a “initial care plan” for him, and he has participated “in decision-making since the stroke.”

His guardian must make choices on his behalf until he is well enough to “get treatment for his injuries” and is able to do so.

The court determined Fritz needs a guardian in order to prevent future health impairment. The court determined that “appointment of a guardian and conservator is necessary to prevent urgent harm to him.”
