Sometimes life takes us on unexpected journeys. Frank Fritz was going through a lot personally, despite being a well-known television fixture.
This is his tragic story…
Diann Bankson was Frank Fritz’s longtime partner. His turbulent divorce led to alcoholism, unemployment, and health risks. Even though they are no longer together, their time together left an indelible mark on them.
Frank Fritz, the host of “American Pickers,” was 25 years old when he first met Diann Bankson. The couple dated intermittently before getting engaged in 2017. In 2018, they bought an Iowa farmhouse and moved in together a year later.
Their relationship soured in November of that year, when Bankson claimed to have “walked in” on Fritz and “found him in bed with another woman.”
Fritz revealed in a conversation that Bankson had betrayed him and had even gotten a tattoo to remind him of it. But he said he still wanted to marry her.
“I was going to get married, I bought a house and a large expensive ring,” Fritz said after learning that his fiancee had been seeing someone else for the previous 2.5 years.
