Has anyone heard anything about Ricardo? What a beautiful person and beautiful family. I hope he is doing well.
I hope he is doing well. Any updates?
He was such a sweet guy! Really hope he got help
I’m surprised that there are only 3 comments and no updates bc he was so likable.
just watched this episode and i’m kinda shocked with the small amount of comments! this is such a nice loving guy who looks like a really good dad. his kids love for him are very touching, made me a little emotional. gonna look for some updates later, but i’ll always be wishing this guy and his family the best!
Was hoping to find some info as to how Ricardo is doing! What a nice man he was and such a loving family. Hope all is well with everyone.
Ricardo seems like such a sweetheart. I usually don’t feel sorry for the people but I did this time. He seemed so lost, so sad, and in a lot of pain. I wish we could find out what happened to him. I pray that he’s been successful in his recovery and the he rebuilt his relationships with his kids. For them and for him. You could tell how much the kids love him (which says a lot about him as a dad and as a man) and how much he loves his kids. God bless him and his fam. Good luck Ricardo. You’re in my prayers
Ricardos transformation was incredible! Awesome to hear after the 90 days he chose to stay another 90. I hope he and his son Rico are well today.
I wish there was an update on Ricardo and his family… his story really touched my heart!! The longing for the dad that they once had, made me just want to reach in the television and hug his two kids! They were really great and loving kids! I hope they finally got their dad back! On the A&E app, the credits said that he stayed in California, and that he talks to his kids regularly.. my thoughts and prayers are with Ricardo & his son & his daughter! God bless them!! 🙏🏼💗
My name is Ricardo and I’m alive and well. My relationship with my kids is good. I’m still in California and am married coming up on 5 years. I have 6 grandchildren and expecting #7 soon. Thank you for all of the prayers. I’m still going to AA and am grateful for all of the support I have received over the past 12 years!
RICARDO! Great to hear from you, and thrilled to hear that you’re sill sober. 12 years! Amazing. Thanks for keeping us posted.
That is wonderful to hear. Congratulations 😀
