“I was 18 when we made the pilot for Peyton Place. He was several years older than me, happily married to a gorgeous actress Joanna Moore and they had a new baby (Tatum). He was so confident and very, very funny! There were times when he made me laugh so uncontrollably that we had to stop shooting. He was my first, very secret crush. I was so shy i could barely look at him. After i left the show we remained friends altho we saw each other rarely. In the 70s he was Godfather to one of my kids- the baptism was in the old church in English countryside where i lived with my husband Andre. But in time Ryan forgot. His life became increasingly complicated. In recent years we kept in touch by phone. I hope he will rest in peace. My thoughts are with his children. Tatum remains my friend.” @realmiafarrow
