Sean Astin on Mom Patty Duke's Bipolar Disorder: 'We Were All in the Storm Together'
But for son Sean Astin, his late mother's mental health struggle was deeply personal. And now, after her death Tuesday at 69, the actor tells PEOPLE that even through the darkest depths of her illness, there was never any doubt of her unrelenting affection.
"It wasn't always pretty and it wasn't always fun. But there was a lot of love," says Astin, 45. "Even through her divorce and her attempts with her own life and horrible things, there was a never a moment of doubt that she loved me. We were all in it together. We were all in the storm together."
