Actor Gary Sinise, formerly star of the hit series Les Experts: Manhattanhas not appeared on screen for over 4 years. He has just given the reasons for this prolonged absence… and it is upsetting.
It has been more than 4 years now since Gary Sinisethe ex-star of the series The experts: Manhattan and unforgettable traveling companion of Forrest Gumpno longer appeared on the small and big screen. A notable absence for the man who began his career at the end of the 80s. Today, in an interview given to our American colleagues at Fox News, the 69-year-old actor returned to the reasons for this distance. Take out the tissues, they will be very necessary…
Gary Sinise: The death of his son earlier this year left him heartbroken.
A little reminder of the unfortunately tragic facts: last February, Gary Sinise, heartbroken, announced the death of his son, McCanna Anthony, following a rare form of cancer detected in 2018 and particularly affecting the spine. Added to this appalling intimate drama is another: since 2018, his wife, the actress Moira Harrisis also fighting breast cancer Fortunately, the latter seems to have beaten the crab and is currently in remission. But for the Sinises, also parents of two daughters, Sophie and Ella, the period is devastating.
“My son was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer just two months after my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer”Gary Sinise, the ex-star of CSI: Manhattan, reveals why he hasn't played for more than 4 years!
And it is precisely to fight with his wife and son that Gary Sinise chose to move away from the film sets. “Traveling far from my family was impossible given what we were going through (…) My wife had learned that she had breast cancer. Then my son was diagnosed with this rare form of cancer, barely two months old later”he admits first of all, before detailing the heavy fight led by McCanna Anthony, “His fight was particularly difficult because he was fighting a cancer that had no cure (…) Finding medicine and doctors, finding someone who could do something for him was a time job full (…) Furthermore, as the cancer progressed, he became more and more infirm and therefore needed more and more care.” And that's (unfortunately) not all. While his wife and son were fighting for their lives, Gary Sinise was also forced to take care of his mother, his father having been the victim of an attack… Enough, logically and without regrets, to forget the cameras and the scenarios.
