Willie Aames Tells his Story in 'Broke and Famous'

Despite starring in successful series such as "Charles in Charge" and "Eight is Enough," Willie Aames wound up virtually homeless, divorced and cut off from his daughter. Now he talks to ET’s Kevin Frazier about how his life spiraled down into poverty. "My annual income was $1.5 million," he reveals. "Life is pretty grand when you're making good money like that." Then there was no job, no bank account, no wife or child. "I never dreamed it could happen that fast," he says. "I always felt as though, if nothing else, I have a successful marriage. And, I think, I began to place more of my self-esteem in the fact that I had a good marriage more than anything else. When that went away, I was devastated. But I don't blame Maylo. It's me."
