Jack Nicholson is an American actor and filmmaker who has enjoyed a successful career spanning over 50 years. However, of late, the star has been absent from the public eye, with indications that the star's health is declining.
As the most nominated male actor in Academy Award history, the star has gone down and will go down in history as one of Hollywood's greats.
But now, at the age of 84, the star seems to have faded from public life, with reports that his health is far from ideal. In fact, a source close to the actor told Radar that the star is living out his "sad last days" in his Los Angeles mansion.
Even though there was no official confirmation from the star or his spokespersons, a close friend told Radar that Jack "doesn't leave his house anymore," and that his son and his daughter assumed the care responsibilities.
“The Mulholland Drive community is very close and everyone is concerned about him. He physically he is fine, but his mind is gone. It's really sad to see an actor as talented as Jack go out like this."
Closer Weekly also received a comment from a friend of the star after he made an unusual comment following the sad death of basketball player Kobe Bryant.
Following the news of the tragic helicopter crash that killed Kobe and eight others, Jack issued a statement saying, “I was used to seeing and talking to Kobe…he kills you. We will think of him all the time and miss him."
In the wake of this, a source said the star is "making up for lost time" with his family and children, after living his life to the fullest.
Although fans are left wondering what exactly is going on with the star, considering that the last movie he appeared in was in 2010, it may be safe to assume that he is firmly removed from the entertainment industry that brought him so much success.
As we get older, memory loss and forgetfulness become more common. Bupa explains that normal age-related memory loss doesn't usually bother people too much, as long as they're given enough time to learn and remember things.
However, in some cases, memory loss is the first symptom of a more serious condition like dementia.
The Mayo Clinic explains that dementia is used to describe the group of symptoms that affect not only memory but also thinking and social skills. These symptoms are so severe that they interfere with a person's daily life.
