Ryan O'Neal Gets Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame Next to Late Love Farrah Fawcett

It’s a special and bittersweet day for Ryan O’Neal.

The 79-year-old actor received star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame next to the star of his late partner Farrah Fawcett.

Ryan visited the star on Friday afternoon (February 12) in Hollywood and he placed a rose on Farrah‘s star.

Also receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame that day was Ryan‘s Love Story co-star Ali MacGraw. Their stars are side-by-side to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their beloved movie. A limited edition Blu-ray copy of the film was just released to commemorate the occasion.

Ryan said during the virtual ceremony, “I grew up around Hollywood Boulevard, to tell you the truth. As a high school junior, I used to come to Hollywood Boulevard with my lads and look for fights and girls. Who would’ve thought [I would have] a star on the Walk of Fame? I thought I’d end up in jail and look where I am.”

“It’s a wonderful gesture and I’m going to come up to HB every once in a while to look at it. And my girls, my dear girls,” he added. “I’m glad I lived long enough to get my star.”
