If they were being honest, most people consider marriage to a Hollywood star as a golden ticket. When someone is rich and famous, marrying them means you get to be rich and famous. And on top of not having to worry about money anymore, marriage to an actor means you get to spend the rest of your life with someone who is smoking hot.
Sadly, things don’t always work out this way. They most certainly didn’t for Loni Willison, a woman who married a Baywatch star and once had the life so many of us dream of. After that marriage broke apart, though, she spiraled into a bleak existence of drug addiction and misery that has left her homeless.
Just what is Willison’s story? What happened with her marriage, and how did this lead to a sad new life on the streets? Keep reading to find out!
Getting her start as a fitness guru

Most regular people don’t marry Hollywood stars for the simple fact that they have no way of meeting them. That is, if you’re hoping to hook up with a movie or TV star, you need to do something that would land you in their orbit. For Loni Willison, it all started with her career as a fitness fitness model.
A California native, Willison frequently appeared on the covers of major national magazines as a fitness model. This included publications ranging from GlamFit to Sports Illustrated. Those covers are part of what makes her descent into homelessness so depressing because the Willison of today bears no resemblance to the blonde, tanned, and toned Willison of yesterday.
Her career as a fitness model is how she met her future husband. Their wedding was the happiest day of Willison’s life. Sadly, though, she had no way of knowing this was the beginning of the end.
Marriage to a ‘Baywatch’ star

By now, you’re probably asking who the heck Loni Willison married. The short answer is that she married Jeremy Jackson, and while he’s not exactly a household name these days, he was a very hot commodity back in the ‘90s. That’s because he played Hobie Buchanan, the son of David Hasselhoff’s character on the hit television drama Baywatch.
The two got married in 2012, and everything looked fairly happy from the outside. They attended red carpet events together and seemed absolutely crazy for each other. From the outside looking in, these two were Hollywood’s newest power couple. Unfortunately, their marriage was destined to implode because of events in Jackon’s life that occurred well before they ever got married in the first place.
