A lot of people are wondering if Richard Simmons is married. His daily physical activity for at least thirty minutes were his sermons. Fans speculated endlessly about his whereabouts while he was out of the limelight. His focus shifted to his family, and rumors circulated that he got married.

In 1992, he was said to be dating adult actor Daniel Holt of Switzerland. Nevertheless, the fitness personality's spouse remains a mystery. Despite popular belief, Simmons has never been in a committed relationship.

His housekeeper, Teresa Reveles, was believed by some to have abducted him after he went missing around 2014. A well-known TV host came forward,

For thirty years, Teresa Reveles has been my partner... We're so close it's like we're married... I am not a cause for concern. The people in my life are absolutely amazing, and they look after me like a princess.

The American comedian does not have a child because, as his fans have likely guessed by now, he enjoys being alone. Through his work, he is able to connect with people and maintain strong relationships with his family. There is no son in Richard Simmons's family.

When TMZ Investigates: What Truly Occurred with Richard Simmons came out in 2022, it was a documentary. The documentary claims that he was out for quite some time because a knee operation prevented him from exercising as usual.

Was he gay?

Rumors have circulated that the American fitness personality is gay, but he has never addressed the claims.

The majority of his admirers assume he is gay due to his fashion choices and his association with the homosexual hustler Bruce Headrick. Still, the fitness personality has refrained from discussing his sexuality in the media.

Death cause

Simmons passed away on 13 July 2024 at his Los Angeles residence. His died by natural causes and no foul play was suspected, but till now police did not provide a cause of death.

A spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department informed NPR that an investigation into a death was carried out at a residence in the Hollywood Hills.

Many were moved by that message, especially those who didn't identify with the conventional fitness industry or who felt like an outsider on the team.
