Suzanne Somers’ Son Bruce Opened Up About the Actress’ Impact on Him and Others

During an interview with Entertainment Tonight’s Kevin Frazier, Suzanne Somers’ son Bruce spoke about her impact on not just him, but her fans as well.

“Yesterday, she was just mom,” Somers’ son explained. “And today she’s back to being Suzanne Somers in everyone’s eyes. I appreciate that. And I appreciate everything that she’s done. She has touched so many people.”

As Frazier continued to speak to Suzanne Somers’ loved, her husband Alan revealed he always thought he would be the first one to pass away between the two of them.

“We thought it would be me [first],” Alan recalled. “Because I’m 10 years older than Suzanne. And then I thought, ‘What a conundrum! If it’s me first then she’s alone. I don’t want her to be alone.”

Alan also explained that over the past 42 years, he and Somers hadn’t spent even one hour apart. “And my son, Bruce, refers to it as ‘functionally co-dependent,’ which I guess it is.”

Bruce went on to add that from his point of view, his parents were inseparable. “Alan is very private, and doesn’t want to be a public person. My mother loved being in the public, and so he protected her.”
