Michael Landon, known for his iconic roles in TV series like ‘Bonanza,’ ‘Little House on the Prairie,’ and ‘Highway to Heaven,’ may have left us over 30 years ago, but his impact is still felt today. He not only entertained audiences but was also a devoted husband and father, determined to create lasting bonds with his children.
Perhaps Landon’s commitment to being a great parent stemmed from his own challenging childhood. His mother faced mental health struggles, and he even saved her life multiple times after suicide attempts. Despite facing adversity, Landon pursued his passion for acting after a college sports injury forced him to change his plans. Moving to Los Angeles, he embarked on a successful career in showbiz and graced the cover of TV Guide a remarkable 22 times, a feat he shares with Lucille Ball.
Landon had a total of nine children through his three marriages. With his first wife Dodie Levy-Fraser, he adopted two sons named Mark and John. His second wife, Lynn Noe, gave him four children – Leslie, Michael Jr., Christopher, and Shawna. He also adopted Lynn’s daughter Cheryl from a previous relationship. After his second marriage ended, Landon married Cindy Clerico, causing a scandal due to their age difference. However, Landon vehemently denied any infidelity, stating that relationships end for deeper reasons than mere attraction to someone younger.
