Parents walk out on Larry King minutes before a scheduled interview
The mystery of Andrew Koenig, who played Richard “Boner” Stabone on the ’80s sitcom Growing Pains, gets weirder and weirder. Koenig, son of Star Trek actor Walter Koenig, has not worked much since he left his role as Kirk Cameron’s unfortunately nicknamed buddy at the end of the fourth season. He arrived in Vancouver earlier this month, but he has not been seen by anyone in days. Walter Koenig has said that the last time his son contacted him was via a “depressed” email on February 16, and a missing-persons coordinator told Radar.com that he fears this is the behaviour of a suicidal person. Larry King was scheduled to have an interview with Koening’s parents, but they walked out of the studio two minutes before the live interview was scheduled to begin, leaving Larry King “stammering” and leaving gawker.com with the suspicion that they had gotten some news about their son. As for the rest of us, we’ll have to wait and see.
