Rasten, who was 78, died February 18 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after shooting himself at the Beverly Hills, California home the couple lived in, TMZ reported.

Rasten was despondent amid health issues that severely impacted his quality of life, Charo said in a statement confirming his tragic passing.

'In recent years, his health began to decline and he developed a rare and horrible skin disease called bullous pemphigoid,' she said. 

'He also became very depressed. That, along with the many medications he needed to take, became too much for him, and he ended his suffering.'

Describing Rasten as 'an amazing man' who 'dedicated his life to loving and supporting his family,' Charo made clear that the suicide took his loved ones by surprise.

'There are no words to describe what we are feeling now,' she said. 'None of us had any idea this could happen to such a wonderful, kind and generous man.'

The Love Boat alum, whose real name is Maria del Rosario Pilar Martinez Molina Baeza, implored people to be proactive with their loved ones who might show signs of depression.

'Please, if anyone you know and love is suffering from depression or illness, hold them close, tell them you love them with all your heart and that the world is better because they are in it. Get any help you can. Suicide is not the answer.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
