Robin Williams’ Son Opens Up About His Father’s Death

(Undated) — The late Robin Williams’ son is opening up about his father’s death on what would have been his 70th birthday. Speaking Wednesday on The Genius Life podcast, Zak Williams says his father was frustrated after being misdiagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. He explained it was difficult for his father when his symptoms didn’t match with other Parkinson’s patient’s experiences. It wasn’t until years after his passing they learned the actor had Lewy body dementia. He also said his father’s death drove him toward alcoholism, but he ended up getting help.
