πŸ’£ β€œβ€˜I’ve Carried This for Decades’: Lee Majors, Now 86, Finally Reveals the Devastating Truth He Never Told Farrah Fawcett πŸ’”πŸ“œβ€

For decades, their love story was treated as a fairy tale β€” the strong, silent TV icon and the effervescent blonde bombshell whose poster adorned millions of bedroom walls.

But in Hollywood, fairy tales don’t always end with β€œhappily ever after.

At 86, Lee Majors Finally Admitted The Devastating Truth About Farrah  Fawcett

” Lee Majors and Farrah Fawcett’s marriage was splashed across tabloids, dissected by gossip columnists, and eventually eclipsed by scandal, separation, and the slow drift of two people growing in opposite directions.

Now, over 40 years since their split, and 14 years after Farrah’s heartbreaking death in 2009, Lee Majors has finally opened up.

And what he confessed during a private interview β€” now leaked to insiders β€” is nothing short of devastating.

For years, Majors avoided talking in detail about Farrah.

His answers were vague, respectful, guarded.

But during a recent sit-down recorded as part of a legacy documentary project β€” intended originally for private archival use β€” Majors paused for a long moment when asked about the woman who once wore his ring.

And then, with a crack in his voice rarely heard from the bionic man himself, he said: β€œI never forgave myself for letting her go.

And worse β€” I never told her why.

”

What followed was not rehearsed.

It was raw, unraveling, and β€” according to the crew on set β€” left the room in stunned silence.

Majors admitted that behind the scenes, their relationship was a tightrope of insecurity and professional jealousy.

While he was already a household name from The Big Valley and The Six Million Dollar Man, Farrah was still finding her footing in Hollywood.

He supported her β€” publicly.

But privately, he struggled.

β€œI wanted her to shine.

I just didn’t expect her to shine that bright.

I wasn’t ready to play second to anyone β€” not even her.

”

When Charlie’s Angels exploded into a cultural phenomenon, Farrah became more than a rising star β€” she became an icon.

And Lee, already used to controlling the tempo of his world, found himself feeling sidelined.

β€œI was proud of her,” he admitted, β€œbut I also resented what it did to us.

To me.

”

The cracks deepened as their schedules pulled them further apart.

Offers poured in for Farrah β€” photo shoots, film roles, appearances.

Majors, meanwhile, was still anchoring his own show, but emotionally adrift.

They began living parallel lives.

The kind where you still share a home, but not a life.

Classic - 47 years ago today, July 28, 1977, Lee Majors & Farrah Fawcett  were married. They separated 1979, and divorced February 16, 1982. During  the first six years of their marriage,

Eventually, even that fell apart.

But it wasn’t just career tension.

Majors revealed a deeper, more personal truth β€” one he had never publicly acknowledged before.

Farrah had wanted to start a family.

β€œShe talked about it all the time, but I always said β€˜not now’ or β€˜maybe next year.

’ I was terrified of losing control.

Terrified I wouldn’t be enough.

And then came the moment he said he would never forgive himself for.

According to Majors, just months before their official separation, Farrah confided in him that she might be pregnant.

It turned out to be a false alarm β€” but his reaction was anything but supportive.

β€œI shut down.

I didn’t comfort her.

I didn’t even ask if she was okay.

I just…stared at the wall.That was the beginning of the end.

After their split, Majors said he followed her career from afar.

He knew about her infamous relationship with Ryan O’Neal, the turbulence, the passion, the headlines.

He saw her transformation from glamor starlet to artistic rebel.

But what haunted him most wasn’t her choices β€” it was his silence.

β€œI should’ve called.

Just once.Even years later.Just to say I was sorry.But he never did.

When Farrah was diagnosed with cancer, Majors admits he almost reached out β€” several times.

β€œI’d write something, then delete it.

Pick up the phone, then hang up.

I thought, maybe she wouldn’t want to hear from me.

Maybe I’d just reopen old wounds.

But now.

.

.

I think maybe she would’ve liked to know.

”

And then, perhaps the most heartbreaking confession of all: β€œI still have one of her voicemails saved.

I listen to it on my birthday every year.

Just to hear her laugh.

She had that kind of laugh β€” it made you feel like the sun came out.

The interview was never intended to go public.

But after a portion of the footage was leaked to a streaming network executive, the buzz became deafening.

A documentary deal is now reportedly in the works, with permission from Majors’ estate, that will explore the full, unedited emotional account of his regrets, reflections, and the love that quietly endured even after the world thought it was long dead.

Hollywood insiders have reacted with mixed emotions.

Some praise Majors for finally breaking the silence and confronting the emotional cost of fame and masculinity.

Others question why he waited so long.

But among fans, one thing is clear: the story that once seemed like just another celebrity divorce now feels like a Greek tragedy β€” love eclipsed by pride, connection lost to silence.

As Lee Majors enters the twilight of his life, the man who once played an indestructible hero now speaks not of strength, but of sorrow.

And in doing so, he reminds us that the real battle isn’t on screen β€” it’s in the quiet moments of what we fail to say before it’s too late.
