She was accompanied by her son Jake Pentland who was seen carrying a black suitcase and a backpack over his shoulder. He also went for a rather casual look, wearing track pants and a zip-up hoodie over a grey t-shirt. Jake is an actor, director, and producer known for the talk show 'The Tipping Point'.
Roseanne is popular for her sitcom 'Roseanne Revival' which centered on the everyday life of an American working-class family. The sitcom has won a lot of love from the audience since 1990. But it was canceled as a result of her racist remarks on former president Barack Obama and his ex-advisor Valerie Jarrett. However, in an interview with PEOPLE, she stated, “It was the end of the world and my life’s work. But I lived through it and God has shown me great love and so have people and that’s very healing.” She also added, “All my friends said ‘Your mistake was to apologize to the left,’ because when they see blood in the water they’re going to come until you’re dead. And I think that’s kind of true.”
According to reports, Barr is now said to be having her best life with her two-decade lover, Johnny Argent in Hawaii, after experiencing three failed marriages and being boycotted from the entertainment world. According to reports, Argent, the writer, producer, and the former presidential candidate began talking via phone before meeting after a year.
She once told The Guardian, “We talked for a year on the phone. I fell in love with his voice. I told him, 'I don't care if you're an amputee, I just care if you have teeth' - teeth are pretty important. I don't mind the no limbs and stuff. He kept saying, 'You won't like how I look, you'll be very disappointed.' He would never send a picture so I thought, 'He's Quasimodo, but I don't care.'"
“Then we made an arrangement to meet. He flew in and I was waiting at the airport in a car with a driver. He's crazy like me, he doesn't go outside very much. I was thinking, 'Why have I done this?' and he opened the door and I almost lost my mind. He was the most handsome man I've ever seen.”
Over years, she has significantly lost a lot of weight through a healthy diet and exercise. Reportedly she has 6 grandkids and enjoys spending time with them, as per Extratv.
