'"I know you had a close relationship with Rob and Michele, and I know that everybody was waking up heartbroken this morning," the media personality started."I was devastated last night when the calls started flooding in," Rosie expressed. "I met him through activism work, and he was just so wonderful. He treated me like we knew each other for years. Michele was amazing. Such an intelligent person. They were both very warm and funny and kind people, and it's a great loss. But the good news, if there's any good news in this tragedy, is that his legacy will live on forever."

Nick suffered from substance abuse and homelessness leading up to the incident. Oddly enough, in a resurfaced interview from 2016, the All in the Family star reflected on how he did not tell his kids to "just say no to drugs.""I'm a child of the '60s, so I would have felt I was a hypocrite," Rob confessed. "There wasn't anyone I knew who didn't do something ... People go through a period and come out the other end." Nick has visited 18 different rehab facilities and slept on the streets of Texas, Maine and New Jersey throughout his struggle."It was alright. It was a change of scenery!" he joked of being homeless. "I'm so grateful I'm still alive, and I can say I'm more than a spoiled rich kid."
