'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' actress is a victim of elder abuse, family claims, plus more celeb news ICYMI
_
Edie McClurg, who famously starred in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and a slew of other films, is a victim of elder abuse, her family claims. Edie's family said in court paperwork, as reported by the New York Post on Aug. 2, that a man named Michael L. Ramos claims to be a "long time" friend and was attempting to marry her. As the 76-year-old suffers from dementia, her family believes Edie might not even be aware of what's happening. Michael, the court documents claim, managed to "finagle" his way into the actress' life and has been living in her home since 2017. Edie, who is under a conservatorship, has "never been involved [in] a romantic relationship" with Michael, her family insists, but fear that he "has or may be assaulting [Edie] and that she may not even know that it is happening to her." Michael has denied assaulting or sexually abusing Edie. The judge, the Post reported, ruled that Michael "may not enter into a valid marriage" with the actress.
