Suzanne Somers

Suzanne Somers used to be one of the shining stars of the 1970s. Fans would best remember her for the hit sitcom Three’s Company. Although she only played the role of Chrissy Snow for a year, she instantly became a fan favorite. In September 1991, Somers returned to the TV series in the sitcom Step by Step, which was a great success in the ABC series of TGIF for youth.

However, her exit wasn’t a good one. The 74-year-old star could be a perfect example as to why actors had to stay on the “producer’s good side.” She left the show in protest, asking for more money, so she breached the contract. Sure, she was already a big star then, not to mention wealthy, but the payments for the legal battle, from lawyers to other stuff, took a toll on her savings. With the issue she got into, Somers also found it hard to get new offers that would give her steady income.
