Eddie Charles, played by Dorien Wilson, was a true Casanova in one of the most well-liked series of the 1990s, Dream On (1990–1996), who slept with a number of women while avoiding committed relationships. The actor, who is a devoted family man in real life, clearly found the job to be challenging.

He wed Joann, whom he had two children with, when he was only 22.

The father of two was formerly thought to be gay despite all of this. How and why did a married man become involved in such rumors? In addition, unsubstantiated sources state that the actor allegedly broke up with his longtime lover Joann.

But is anything actually true?

Continue reading to learn about Dorien’s wife, family, and the source of the LGBT rumor.

According to reports, Dorien and his wife have broken up, although their Instagram indicates otherwise.

The Dream On actor reportedly met his wife Joann in sixth grade at a California school in Lompoc, according to a LA Times story. Although it’s unclear exactly when and how their relationship began, the pair were married right away. Dorien was only 22 when they got married in 1986.

With Joann, The Parkers actor has two kids, Sarita and Devin. Both Sarita and Devin are now adults; Sarita is already engaged to Danny Shabtai, and Devin is dating Aishaah.

On June 20, 2021, his daughter wished him a happy father’s day on Instagram.

The married couple’s divorce has been a topic of discussion since 2018.

However, the specifics of their divorce remain mostly unclear, making it possible to dispute whether it actually happened.

Several news sources discuss their supposed split, although the precise date of their reported divorce is unknown. But their Instagram feed appears to be portraying a positive narrative. They still have the deepest love and respect for one another despite being apart.

On March 18, 2021, Joan shared a photo of herself and the American actor celebrating their St. Patrick’s Day custom on Instagram.

Joann occasionally shares these throwbacks as well. She uploaded an old photo from the 1990s in March 2019 with her partner and her daughter Sarita Faye.

Even more recently, she published a touching tribute for their adorable kid on the occasion of her birthday.

She added Dorien as a tag at the same time.

As evidenced by the Instagram images, the two continue to appear to get along.

Dorien was allegedly gay despite being married and having children.

How did the Dream On actor end himself the subject of gay allegations despite being married to a woman?

In fact, stand-up comedian Katt Williams allegedly asserted during a performance that he witnessed two men kissing, one of them was Professor Oglevee.

The Parkers included the sitcom regular as Professor Oglevee, which sparked debates about the actor’s sexual orientation. Katt’s assertion, nevertheless, only applied to Professor Ogleeve as a fictional character, not the actor who played the part.

The nominee for the CableACE Award also once performed in a play that examined the challenges of speaking out about being gay, which only served to confirm the accusations.

These rumors, however, are all unfounded and inaccurate.
