There’s No “Hope” For Him
As time went on, Bob Hope’s eyesight and hearing began to decline. This lead to Hope’s appearances on Carson’s show to become even more aggravating to Carson. He even went on to tell his writing team: “If I ever end up like that, guys, I want you to shoot me.”
Carson’s Ladies
Carson was also well-known for his womanizing ways. During the divorce process with his second wife, Carson was spending time with actress and Playboy model Angel Tompkins. His third wife, Joanna Holland, was well-aware of his infidelities. She received many lavish gifts from Carson as a result of his many wanderings, but their marriage also came to an end.
